So, for whatever reason, I can’t access wordpress or blogger in China. But I can still blog photos from flickr, so nyeh.
More to come…please comment on them if you please

China, pt. 1
It’s been awhile since I’ve been back to China. I turned 13 in Wuhan in 1996. And now, 10 years later, I’m headed back a month before my 23rd birthday. Time flies.
I’m a little nervous about seeing my family there, for reasons of language, culture, and well–just having little or nothing to say to them. I am going to be spending a lot of time smiling and nodding, but how bad can that be? Hopefully Annie will spice things up once she arrives. Plus, delicious authentic Chinese food…yum. I think I will avoid the chicken, however.
Also, I fear…diarrhea! Montezuma’s revenge in China? We live in a small world after all. It seems unavoidable, but I still hope…man. That sucks. And the squatting toilets? UGH.
As for the picture above, yes, the little tot is me. I think it’s interesting how every culture around the world likes to immoblize their babies in layers of puffy clothing. I can’t quite figure out what my mom is doing with her finger, except that it seems to be pointing “up”. Well in any case it looks like I am pretty well entertained by it. Go finger!
I would like to hear any travel advice if y’all out there got any.
