next week

Next week I am meeting up with my friend Dawn and we are traveling to China. We still have no idea where we are going to go, and this has caused us much stress. I am writing this because 1. I probably won't update the blog while I'm gone, 2. Dawn said something really funny to me and I wanted to share. While we were discussing where we might go she said "just so you know, I am not really crazy about huge cities" Do you know how many millions 1.2 billion is? It is 1200. One thousand and two hundred million. Have you ever heard of Chengdu? How about Xian? Both of the those cites, you've probbly never heard of have larger populations than London (Chengdu, 13 mil and Xian, 10 million). I am pretty sure it is going to really hard to avoid huge cities in China.
