Right, but we need to do something about the 26 hours train ride between Shang... hai and Guilin. It is just not best use of time. Would like to stay a day longer in Shang... hai, and fly to Guilin.

Would also like to stay longer in Hong Kong, at the end of the China trip. To rest, clean up, upNdownLoad, etc.

week 5 - 6

Thailand ?

no. Prefer South Corea.

I must go visit Amy, friend in Seoul. She has spirit.

Connected with her last year at CHI in home town mtl. She is now lead UI designer at Samsung.

and Thailand is too easy.. too amsterdam-ish.
