Today is a good day for the beach...

Yup. I think I'll do that.
And bring a book.
And maybe a snack, and an umbrella.
Oh yeah.
Fun!

Cat Diary Episode 141

December 5 After coming back from California for the Thanksgiving holiday, and finally bringing back Charlie home with me, I was finally getting a chance to see what Billie Boo would do when confronted with the sad reality that I was already a kept human. I took Charlie for a walk about the apartment complex and came across Billie Boo. The first encounter and already Billy Boo was already drawing back realizing that there was a new furred friend through into our Feline Human friendship. Charlie was a bit weary of her since he has been burned by Feline Canine friendships. Most ending in him getting the bad end of the stick. Still I wanted this friendship to work.

Future Posts Inquiries

I haven't really traveled anywhere this month so I thought I would write post about things that interest you guys. I received a private message from a friend who always reads my blog about dragon fruit. What does it taste like? Why are they white? More importantly, how does one peel the fruit? I will be writing a step by step process of dragon fruit and what it taste like. I will also try to incorporate a video (Still trying to figure that one out.) So what about you?

I wrote a post about that place that can be read here if you're interested. How did I even get here? The vast subway system makes it quite affordable to move from one side of town to the another. So from my hotel, I took a couple lines down and got off on line 8 on the stop called Dashijie. Upon exiting and just around the corner from the little park across the street from the metro stop, there's a the bus station that takes passengers from Downtown Shanghai all the way to the ancient city of Zhujiajiao. How much did this cost? A one way trip to this lovely water town cost only 12 yuan which is nearly two dollars. Super cheap! The bus ride took roughly an hour and when I asked the bus driver (in my broken Chinese) when the last left the station in Zhujiajiao, he told me...
