China Ahead (Idle Words)#

China Ahead

One of the promises I made to myself before going to China was that there would be no pathetic wandering around Chinese cities looking to get online. It turns out that getting online from China is easy as pie, but a promise is a promise, and so I'm left with a backlog of foreign-travel posts. At least I'm in good company.

I ask both regular readers to bear with me if the next few days are too Sinocentric. China turns out to be one hell of a fascinating place, and maybe I can make people feel less terrified than I did about picking up and going there.

It will beat reading about Brandon, Vermont, I promise.
