Yes, they acknowledge the 4th. lol. American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai actually had a special 4th of July event, but I didn't go. There are also several US restaurants (or Americans running restos) in Shanghai, thus several restaurants/clubs/bars had special activities for Americans (e.g. barbeques, mini fireworks).

Does China (or any of its subcultures) acknowledge the 4th of July at all? I wouldn't blame them if they didn't being as though the day has nothing to do with China, but I can think of worse excuses to blow up fireworks.

Do you think all the people who took your picture went back to show other people and said something like, "And here's a weird-looking foreigner!"?

Queues
At least the chinois "queue" up to get on the Metro. As I'm sure you know, no one lines up for the Metro is Paris. Instead, everyone pushes and shoves their way in...even when there isn't enough room. Those chinois, I'll tell you what :)

Well, this I knew...I just don' t like the idea of people eating big dogs, ya know. It's more than weird.

Well, when you think about it, there is going to be more meat on a bigger dog as opposed to a little yappy one. I'm not saying it doesn't weird me out too, but I guess it makes sense. Hope you're having a blast.
