I got pulled out of the line in Mendoza to have my bag searched when I was flying out last time. The security gal was about 6 foot and hot. I asked her to use her handcuffs on me and she thought it was funny. But didnt oblige. Bugger. Still let me on the plane though.

Jinan today. Such a beautiful city but the ever present smog.

Looks like a nice day for China. I was in Beijing about 7 years ago and you couldnt see 200m. The food is great there but you wouldnt want to live there.

Rule of Chinese eating .... If you do not know what it is .. Don't eat it. Scary shit there !!

punkin · 5 July 2017 09:49AM

Wenzhou today. Slowly heading south.

My rule for trying food here is if it looks unappetizing i pass. If it looks good (80%) i at least try it.

I have never eaten better food than in China.

@punkin mate. If you ever get a chance go to Peru or a Peruvian restuarant. Best food in the world I reckon. But you cant beat great Chinese Dim Sum some days. There are some decent Peruvian restuarants in Sydney town and a couple in Brisvegas.

Tonights dinner. Picture doesn't do this 3 man meal justice. 2 types mushroom,3 types pork sl7ces, pigs intestine, beef liver, ducks blood cake, 2 types noodles a bucket load of vegetables in a spicy chilli scechuan pepper broth.

Cook it as you want it in your own fiery pit of mouth numbing hell.

@punkin are you on a SD biz trip or something?

Whatever happened to @Lloyd does he still run SD or has the structure changed?

Oh man, you must have been out of the loop for a very long time. ;)

punkin · 7 July 2017 09:17PM

Yes mate a business trip with a Sechuan food holiday at the end.

Lloyd does his own thing and has for more than three years now.

Always a beautiful trip through the mountains from Wenzhou to Hangzhou via high speed train. Smaller towns, terraced gardens and mountain rivers with lotus ponds drawn off .

Got those small town blues. In a little city called Fuyang. Only 9 million people live here. Its deserted by Chinese standards.

Pa_bon · 9 July 2017 05:56AM

Wow. That's a hell of a thing when 9 million constitute a small town. Where I come from it's a few hundred.

punkin · 9 July 2017 08:36AM

Yes, a friend from Shanghai asked me how many people live in my city the other week. I said 30 thousand.

He replied that there is 30 thousand people living in his apartment complex.

There are more people in Beijing than there are in the whole of Australia.

trebor · 9 July 2017 11:22AM

A town of only 9 million is too small to qualify for an airport.

squeakyclean · 9 July 2017 02:11PM

I'll tell the people at Schiphol airport that they can close their shop. <1 million people in Amsterdam; 14th busiest airport in the world ;-)

punkin · 9 July 2017 09:18PM

Nah its just that the trains here cruise at over 300km hr. Often it is a very good alternative to flying although we fly today.

Buffet breakfast at our flash business hotel. In walks this guy like he owns it. Slippers and gown open to show his bare chest. I thought i was the most underdressed in among the businessmen in my t shirt.
