Well, in China you have to get used to some certain rules, policies and habits。
That does not necessarily mean we do agree with all of this。 Hey Ho, greetings from China,
how r u doing, what r u doing rrright now, eeeh ? Ah。 reading our travel update, that's fine :)
Currently hanging out in Xi'an, one of the most important cities in chinese history。 It has been the capital of 13 dynasties, including the Zhou, Qin, Han, the Sui dynasty, and the Tang.
At the end of the day, when your feets start bleeding, it can be considered another huge metropole。 We are much more keen to explore the countrysides, the small villages, what is happening behind the curtain, what is happening besides all the Olympics hype which very present in every bigger place。
Tonight we're heading southwest to Yunnan, near Tibet, it's the most diverse part of China, if we managed to survive the 36h trainride。
Btw, our chinese language repertoire has grown already to 20 words 。。。 but still it's very challenging, i。e。 in the restaurant。 Imagine you order roast Peking Duck in accentfree, fluent mandarin and 。。。 they serve you Tomato salad with fried tofu。 Hmmm, McDonald's can be a stonethrow away :)

Es ist uns eine Freude, eure Erlebnisse anzuschauen. Der Wagen sollte vielleicht dochmal einen Ölwechsel bekommen. Nicht, dass ihr noch liegenbleibt. Nur so wegen der Siescherheit ;-)
