Anyone need me to pick them up something? :D

I'll post pics when I get back. Shoo off all the football noobs by the time I get back, ok?

Going for 9 days for work to Hong Kong and Wenzhou in China, then Seoul and Daegu in S. Korea. Also get to see the wonderful airports of Shanghai and Tokyo.

Any long distance travel tips? Not looking forward to the initial 13 hour flight, 2 hour layover, 5 hour flight. :O

Heh.

Actually got pills for that, plus shots for Hepatitis A, B, Typhoid and a Tetanus for safe measure.

Why you hate Thailand?

Just kidding!

While you are in Hong Kong and people are pushing and shoving you in queues and such, just say:

Dill, dill, dill, dill, DILL.

Oh! I'm sorry that means wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT in Thai language. Maybe, they understand Thai language.

Heh!

Visit Thailand next time!

Japanese Enchypalytis might be one. It's winter here, or I would say get it for Korea.

Um, be prepared, they might do a search for child pron on the laptop when you get back, China is an alert country.


Kimchi and dried squid aren't bad. Really, try the kimchi, it's not like you get in teh states. You can try eating it with rice. And there's a lot of different sytles of kimchi. Raw octopus, even better. STAY AWAY FROM THE SOJU (had a rough sunday on the stuff).

Shanghai has a pretty nice airport, pick up some panda's while you're there (stuffed ones). You can drop 1 off over here since I ran out and don't have 1 to give to C before I go.


oh, and when traveling, sleeping pills, or a smaller laptop with a travel adaptor is your friend. Hope you're going business class.

they make dog soup, not jerky (that i've ever seen)

and little dogs are pets, not food

mondu is good (steamed dumpling)

there is a korean chineese dish that I like a lot, noodles and chocolate sauce (it's a black bean sauce) they actually generally serve the sauce on the side with fried rice here
