Anyone been to China?

[MeBelle]

I had a conversation with my Doc about Rushan. He is from China.
He said the city is in a very wealthy part of the Province.

I complained to him regarding the lack of real information I can find on the internet.
He laughed and agreed with me.

check and see if you need shots
make sure you take imodium with you

And...I didn't need any shots due to the fact I've traveled extensively through Europe.

Biatch! I need surgery on one of my hands!
Hopefully I'll be on the mend before we get there.
If all else fails, I may bring sporks with me

Is there a 'Hello Kitty" version of children's chopsticks?

Yuck!

My mama taught me to try a new food before I made judgement.

I'll pass on this one and just say no!

When it comes to street vendors I use the "New York Rule". The pretzel and dog guys never leave their carts to relieve themselves and there is no place for them to go except the side of the cart and I cannot imagine they wash up afterward either. Ya can't pay me enough to munch on one of their pretzels or those rubber dicks they pass off as hot dogs.

At least in China there are no illusions; someone takes a squirt in the broth in order to make your eggs a savory delight.

I don't see anything in the 'sources' provided that proves in the slightest that this story is true.

The following source states, "The eggs are believed to provide remarkable health benefits such as reducing body heat, enhancing blood circulation and reinvigorating the body." My guess is it would be stronger ABs from all the retching after realizing what the eggs are soaked in.

Both! Must train the hand after surgery (cheap version of PT).

Maybe they wear adult diapers?

You may like a nice "Eyeball shaving" during your visit to China. "Eye cleaning is an ancient craft in China, but it is dying out. Liu Deyuan has operated an eye-cleaning stand in a small park in Chengdu city for the past 7 years. He offers a head and face shave plus an eye cleaning for RMB5."

I dunno about eye cleaning, but ear cleaning is a pretty popular road-side service.

Hubby and I are going there on a business trip in June/July.

Have any dos or don'ts to offer?

TIA

So, did you go?

 

[Unkotare]

I was there 20 some years ago. I am sure it has changed some.
treat the prople nice and they will treat you nice.
I would say that most areas now cater better to westerners. I spent 3 weeks eating with 2 sticks
Virtually no baked bread either.

I am not skilled at eating with sticks.
....

A simple skill to master.

 

[the other mike]

I've never been there, but one of these might come in handy.

Spitting is a national pastime.

I've been to Hong Kong.
