[evilmonkeyMSP]

...and my Blackberry got stolen right before I was going to leave. It gets better too. No cab would take me where I needed to go when I left. I ended up walking from Silk Street to Tianemen Square until I found a cab that would go... oh yeah....and it was raining. I'm so ******* pissed right now. I met two foreign girls at the bar tonight. Got their numbers. Yeah, guess which phone I put them in...

Gettin' cock-blocked by China FTL.

They're shipping a new phone to me here. That's fine and dandy. Here's the s*** part. We're on holiday thru the 7th. We don't go back to work till the 8th. The phone is going to the work address... for a few reasons. My apartment doens't have a real address.

It looks like I'm flying to Vietnam again on the 11th... so there's a 3 day window. it's just one thing after another.

i suppose they cannot export your phone list on to the new phone huh. oh well... it was probably made in china... so it was returning home.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

nah, it was made in mexico lol

 

[Rockin03mp5]

[THE Phen]

Well... here's a picture from the club...

 

[BlueWolfCry]

Damn that sucks man...that is real common actually. Glad you had a good time at the club. Also sucks you lost those girls numbers...but there's always next time lol

 

[THE Phen]

Yeah... s*** happens right?

Well... Went to Mutianyu today.... Holy ****.

 

[PrinceValorum]

Dang, I didn't realize the sections of the wall were named.. I wish I knew the name of the section I climbed. That was a friggin serious workout, straight up the side of a mountain...

 

[BlueWolfCry]

Yeh, they have marathons on there too..some of those steps are like waist high lol

 

[CTt3P5]

Damn Phen sorry to hear about the phone.

Lol tell me about it! On the way down my legs were jackhammering the whole way. I would have sworn it was at altitude, but I don't think it was. Potala Palace in Tibet was at 13k feet I think, which was interesting to climb the 500 steps up to the door...

Here's a link to my set of pictures from there. I apologize for not embedding a few into a post, but to be honest, I can't see them. Just red X's. Something about Flickr in China is goofy. I can only see half of the pictures that I've ever uploaded on there. Photobucket is being stupid lately too.

Looks like fun! I chuckled about the Dusty hoodie, and again remembering how short the doorways were in the watchtowers.

 

[THE Phen]

Yeah... pictures of you wearing Dusty merchandise out and about in a different place could get you on the website.

 

[PrinceValorum]

Hah, you sure met that requirement, then.

I had Chinese takeout tonight and thought of you!

Have you seen any UFOs out there? LOL
China UFOs

 

[THE Phen]

Haha, no UFO's. The last few days, I can't see s***. It's too damn hazy.
