Just as an FYI, FB is completely off limits here in China. I am receiving many notes from my gmail account saying that people are posting on my wall but I can't access the site. There are back doors for access but I'm not interested in doing that. I am having my sister access my account to let everyone know.

I know many people are looking based on the counter I put on that I can see but you can't. I just want to say I appreciate those looking as well as the comments. Even if you look and don't comment I find that pretty cool. While I enjoy reading the comments, everyone has a life. If you have the time, then feel free. Just enjoy. I'll do my best to keep it light, add some of my sick humor, and capture some serious stuff as well. Whatever happens here happens. That's the joy of this adventure. I have no idea what will happen next! This place is awesome and I hope others will find this trip through my eyes and damaged mind exciting enough to make their own plans to visit.

Oh yeah, one more thing.

OH YEAH...GO HAWKS from China!!!! We put a Blackhawks flag up outside the House to show our spirit. My favorite player is Byfuglien...Big Buff!!! Can you access the games at all? I'm glad you can see how many people are viewing...I think your friend, Dana and myself, are the only ones commenting! :) We have the weekend off from sports, which is the first weekend off probably since last summer. I promise I'll install skype..just haven't had the chance yet.
It's already morning where you are..keep posting pics and blogging, love it! :)
