So i got up and exited the hotel around 9am to go and find the joining hotel for the tour. The hotel tried to charge me for a stain on the towel's told them to shove it, apparently getting lip balm on a towel means you have to pay for it. I just said dont you wash it, paid my bill and left told them if they charge my card i will get the payment rejected, not a good start to the morning.

I then was doing the long walk to the subway when a guy on a trike comes up 3 for a journey, no thanks i say and continue to walk, he chases after me 3 only 3 he says. So i get on and show him the address, next thing i am zooming down the backstreets on this bike and thinking rummm this is a mistake. So eventualy he stops after 5 mins and says thats my hotel i said i dont think it is it was like 4 star luxury hotel and i definitely know my tour would not go to those lengths. So i get of the trike and he goes 300 hundred please i said no i dont have the money. It was quite apted that i had 70 yen in my pocket with my debit card.

So here i am with an aggressive bike driver in an alley way in china, thought what the f*** so go aggressive back told that is all i had so take it or leave it. He grabs the money and at the same time a guy appears and he is watching the commotion. I said again its all i have turned to leave and just kepted walking he was shouting i owed him 300. Walked to the main street and realise i am no where near my hotel after looking at a map so head to hotel took me twenty minutes checking that he guy was not following.

So nice to turn up at hotel, go into the room, read for a bit then decided right time for a walk about. Went talking through the centre ie. shopping area found a star bucks and had one then took a walk to tianmin square then headed back to hotel, within an hour of me arriving Eileen my room buddy turned up, she seemed dead nice and we had a chat and then she slept for a while, i had a shower while she did.

At 6pm we head down and everyone for the tour turns up. Oh my god all couples then me and eileen. Eileen isnt very happy at this point and im thinking this is going to be random. So our leader rambles on for a 1h 30mins about the tour and then head back to rooms to get ready to go out for dinner. Eileen first thing she says is what the f*** all couple glad your here. So we head for dinner tell richard i dont eat meat and he says that fine and we got to dinner.

OK so i aint eaten properly for three days im starving and we sit down, richard orders food but what the f*** all the meat eaters eat the veggies i was so hungary all i eat was a few bits of veg and some rice. Was well pissed off i think i was so looking forward to it!!!!!!!!!!! At the end we all pay and head back to hotel, where i dont really sleep before am so hungary onto the next day.......
