We ate breakfast and Jake is watching the world go by from our 20 story view. We actually met a Texan businessman at breakfast who spoke English! Wow what a relief to speak to someone in English. He was a big guy who was a lot more daring than us. He had one of everything on his plate. If you offered me a million dollars I could not guess what some of the stuff is that they have on the buffet. We are probably going to gain weight here cause all we eat are carbs. The proteins are a little scary and written in Chinese so u have no clue on what it is. I had a 20 minute convsersation with our housekeeper in Chinese. She kept talking to me and I kept saying I don't understand. She apparently ignored the fact that I did not speak and Chinese and kept talking and she was laughing and having a good time. She was probably talking shit to me and I had no clue. I just sat there and was polite. On another funny note, the toilets here do not flush very well and they get clogged with 2 pieces of toilet paper, so we've had too call to have a guy come up with a plunger twice already. So last night Holly went to the bathroom and it got clogged from toilet paper. So I called and after 15 minutes of trying to tell them the toilet was clogged I had to go downstairs and make the plunger motion like a jackass. The maintenance guy shows up with a plunger and since I figured he didn't speak English I said sorry my wife has a problem and she clogged the toilet by taking a big dump! The guy starts laughing and unclogs the toilet and leaves. Go figure I tell a joke and get the only friggin guy who understood English in the hotel. Well needless to say Holly didn't think it was funny but I laughed for about 20 minutes. Also we have 32 channels and 31 are in Chinese and the 1 English 1 is Reuters news network, otherwise I would be watching tv instead of posting on this blog.
