Those blossoms are gorgeous!
great photos, Lauren. Those cherry blossoms are beautiful. I really wish I'd been able to make it up to Japan. Oh well. I'll be passing through in a few weeks on my way to the States but it's not the same.

Xi'an was cool...
Hey there, Sorry if this is random. But I was in Xi'an last year around this time and my brother, father and I were stuck in the city for 4 days during spring festival. Your pics and story reminded me so much of our trip. I actually stayed in the same hostel as yourself. I just had to laugh when you mentioned that you got stuck in the 'authentic replica government factory'. We were there too, and now when I see a life sized 'replica' of a terra cotta warrior, I just laugh. I hope you got to see the film at the warrior museum in the circular theatre, it was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Have fun in Shanghai, you'll have fun at the Bund, and if you can, I recommend staying at the Captains Hostel in the same area. Cheers, Neil

melbourne
You definately need to stay in the cities for longer to know. Sydney is nicer for a couple opf weeks and is beautiful on the harbour but is the biggest rat race city in Australia. Melbourne has more to offer for long-term.

GOOD
Thank God you made it out of Singapore with no problems. I am scared to visit that region only because of the fear of drugs being snuck in my baggage. That sign in the airport is straight to the point and scary. Great photos! Can't wait to read more!
