Day 11 - Over to Wuxi

[tanithryudo]

Our party left Jiande early this morning and drove to Wuxi where my aunt/uncle (and other cousin) lives. The ride was fairly smooth - Chinese highways aren't too different from US highways (except for the drivers :P).

We arrived in Wuxi around 1 PM in time for a late lunch (late by Chinese standards). We ate at the most famous place in Wuxi for 小龙包 and I stuffed myself silly.

I'm now posting from their place where I once more have access to IJ. However I'm using their computer to post instead of my laptop because it's more complicated to move the internet connection cable here. So no posting images to imageshack any time soon either.

Also, no word as yet on the passports and it's already Friday. Our flight is for next Saturday and who knows how long the VISA will take. I'm crossing my fingers/toes/eyes/etc. for Monday...

Yah, just wanted to hear from the inside. Beijing's response might be a bit biased, what with it being the capital city and all. I figured you'd have a better grasp of the general position. Anyway.

Forbidden Kingdom opens today (18th). XD Lemme know if I should go watch it, or if you're going to get the bootlegs.

At this point, I think you'll probably see it before I do at any rate. I have no idea if I'll have the chance to go looking for the bootleg version, though I'll try.

Well, assuming you get back in time, we can go watch it together. I'll keep waiting for news of bootleg. :p
