There's a fish market just outside our apartment, and it reeks 24/7. They use huge chunks of ice to keep the fish cool, yet they keep them out in the blazing sun. No wonder so many foreigners get sick.
Went for an evening walk to the island, muggy and warm, but on the eastern side the wind from the ocean felt really nice. Looking east toward the city skyline, you can see a giant pagoda building that houses an expensive restaurant I haven't been to yet.
Bought my ticket for Hohhot, Inner Mongolia this morning, 500 kuai, and 39 hours train ride. I'm excited about this, despite most people's shocked reactions at the length of the train ride. Recent seismography has indicated numerous 5 point earthquakes in the region i'm travelling through, but nothing to derail a train :)
After Hohhot, off to Beijing, and back to Guangzhou and Zhuhai, is the plan. Many photos, but after i get back.
