Ahh last night in beijing, past couple of days have been pretty cool though. weather wasnt too good so did some random junk like going to the zoo (big concrete mess but had an amazing aquarium!) saw the panda....it was a panda.....
(smaller than i thought they were) and wandering the old streets of beijing. Might go up the TV broadcats tower 480 meters above beijing to check out the view today and a couple of temples i have missed.
Went to another club called rock and roll in the hope that would not be a regular dance club, but was worng. although they did wave the entrabce fee and take us to VIP booth, so was bearable i suppose
the last two evenings we saw the beijing opera (very odd, lots of women played by men very overactively but it was too sum it up; very bling mime with lots of screeching and cool acrobatics)
and saw the best kung fu show in china, which pretty much makes it the best one in the world as far as im concerened and it was very very good, well worth seeing. I was in awe of their leet skills. sneaked some video footage so i can give you guys a little taste.
errr what else to note down, i got a video of me eating scorpian which was odd and one of me eating a raw squid thing. both just tasted of burning due to the horrendous amount of chilli the street vendors put on them, the scorpian was crunchy wussed out and didnt eat the sting cause i saw it inject a load of black liquid death on the stick they were stuck too.
been hanging with some random guys down at the hostel, kinda odd as people just come and go, there an old irish guy who has a million stories to tell whilst at the bar, you have to distract him and flee!
Have been trying to upload some choice photos but not much luck as of yet will keep trying though. but ironically i have more memeory space on my camera than i do to upload too :S
decided we are gong to try and watch a famous sunrise on top of tai-shan so will climb the mountain during the day then stay at a guest house overnight, hopefully it will be amazing buts its 50/50 as too weather its really visable or not so you guys have to keep your fingers crossed!
Aww was sad about missing my saturday night out with you guys, been having decent music withdrawel syndromes and im might break out in fits of moshing or skanking when no ones looking!
oh well time to leave ya now, next place i should be able to message from will be xi'an so i will let you know how things go. and i will try and get some photos up ASAP.
Law is now leaving beijing!
