"Oh The Humanity"

I'm pretty sure I've used that famous line before but this time I mean it.  There are somewhere over 1.3 billion people in China and about half of them tried to sell me a watch today. 

I went to see a historic place  called the Yu Yuan garden and while it indeed has a 400 year old history and some really cool buildings it was in fact just a tourist trap.  I'm proud to say I didn't give anyone any of my money.



The only good thing about all these people is that only some 4 million of them are Catholics.  I guess we won't see many Chinese guys in heaven eh?

This is my driver.  He must be a Buddhist because in a former life he was on Star Trek.  Warp 8 Mr Zulu!



The other good thing about China is that there ain't a Tim Hortons to be found!



So I came back to the hotel and had a cup of tea!  Pretty good actually.


Weights only today.

And  after all. What do I really know about anything compared to this famous philosopher.

"When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it - this is knowledge."---Confucius

"And remember, no matter where you go, there you are."---Confucius
