I think this is one of the few time if not the first time that I sleep till 6a.m in China. After waking up I did some work online since this is the time that the Wi-Fi works best on my laptop. I think the area of Internet connectivity is one of the wanting areas in China. Though the have good facilities Wi-Fi connection even in the good hotels we slept in was poor. Though we normally feel U.S is usually different in many things I think we can claim China is iso...

He is normally very keen to ...

We depart the city and head to the village. Our departure is delayed by two incidences. The bus couldn't accommodate our weight and it was touching a high point that led to the main road. We were therefore asked to get out of the bus. When the driver was turning around he hit into another packed small car. This delayed our departure for almost one hour. Shaoguan town is much more modern than I expected. The university students gave us warm welcome. Our entry i...
