So I'm standing at a computer kiosk in Hong Kong with a few minutes left of my "15" minutes, and wnated to say that I've traveled Asia, and am almost back home in Shanghai. The highlights are as follows...
Beijing -- Nothing quite beats 12 below(celcius) with high winds while climing the only man made structure that can be seen from space! It was frigid, but quite surreal to climb the great wall -- all the while thinking... am i crazy to attempt a 1/2 marathon here??? And the prognosis is... don't know yet.. I have until May to decide....
Xi'an -- Shooting off a Chinese equivelant of Roman candles with the chinese on the 19th - Chinese New Year - that the vendor lit with the end of his cigarette.
Shanghai -- I finally got up the IFC (Shanghai Financial Center) the 3rd tallest building in the world - along with hundreds of closest friends during the busy tourist week of Chinese New Year. I jumped on reinforced glass with nothing below me in the glass walkway.
Taiwan -- Eating amaznig food at multiple night markets - I could eat almost everything there, which was so amazing and leaves me a few pounds heavier than when I arrived. Rachel's parents would start thinking about what to feed us for snacks or the next meal before we even were done with the one we were eating.... :) I was in culinary heaven!
Pics and more antedotes to come after a few more hours of sleep in my OWN BED!I feel like world traveler, and I guess I partly am! :)
