I have lots of pics but no way to upload them from china. None of my blog posts went out…..

The gubmint, to speak in code, clearly didn’t like my pithy ponderings filtred by Chinese internet authorities. I am sending this via china mobile as a series of texts.

Completely modern city if quingdao, prolly at the level of Kentucky. Its the food that’s most noteworthy. Everything and anything they pull out of the sea they eat. Have loveley pics of squid on a stick, massive starfish on the griddle, and chowing down sun dried seahorses, chameleons, and coiled snakes….snake type undetermined. The air looks like LA in the 1970s. Air pollution is so thick you can’t see more than a city block. I feel like I’ve smoked 3 packs of cigarettes, per day.
