Nice pics !!!
Didn�Lt you have the impression that all hotel rooms in China are the same?
Btw if you like graphic novels, you might want to check out "Shenzhen" by Guy Delisle (a fellow Canadian). It�Ls a dead funny travellog about his 3 month assignment in China.

That's wack.
Hopefully, there was a significant reduction in the tip for that.

In my Blog, I mention how we tried to tip this other waiter at a diff restaurant, and he was almost offended. Apparently in China they frown upon receiving tips. _________________

Alright thanks. Really nice pics. I don't if it's your camera but... I hope you didn't breath too much air. It makes LA's air looks like the amazon.  _________________
