My greatest battle with my in laws are the AC settings. It's 40C (105F) outside with 75% humidity. They want the AC set to 25C (77F) and I want it set at 18C (65F). I'm currently in a suspended state where everything I do is 0.5x speed because it's too damn hot.

All my Chinese silver was seized at airport customs, can't take it out of the country. A climactic end to my journey around northeast china. At least they let me ship it to my grandpa's house back in China. If I knew this beforehand I wouldn't have bought hundreds of coins, would have just gotten a couple. Almost missed my flight running through customs to the post office


Found a Republic of China era manhole cover in ShenYang. This manhole cover has seen the Chinese Civil War, creation of the People's Republic of China, the Great Leap Forward, The Cultural Revolution, 64, and is still chugging along. 

Drinking with locals at my hostel in china, and wow, did not expect the two CCP members I was with to have such contrarian views of history, politcs, and the chinese economy. The best conversations are at 2am over a cold beer on a street shop.
