Shengri Kuai Le - 生日快乐

生日快乐- Happy Birthday. I have always been a fan of the birthday, but more and more, a my birthday has been about going to my favorite resturant, having any kind of dessert, and sharing a few good drinks. And for a few moments, I thought I would have to scrap that for this year. I don't really have a favorite resturant, I have many that I enjoy....Dessert isn't a word here....it means fruit, which will cut it when you have eaten to much, but not on your birthday, and getting together for a few "good" drinks during the week generally only means cheap beer from 7//11 with who ever made it to chinese class that day.

So needless to say, my hopes were low and my expectations nill. But I am happy to report that I probably had one of the best days here in china on my birthday.

A good portion was spent at starbucks in a comfy chair.....good
Then it was dinner at my new favorite resturant ....the pyramid (where NO chinese is served)
Even before the bill came, I was off to crash a wonderful party with the Mayor of Shenzhen, Free wine, and all the most amazing desserts possible.
And still more, it was off to the VBAR, where we danced better than all the chinese all night long to a band that was good......and a chinese michael jackson, that will forever be in my memory.

China always, in the end, surprises you!
