China Town

I am not really even sure what day it is -- other than I have this overwhelming guilt that I need to buy something for my mother. Strange.

We met the driver at 1 to take us to Shenzhen. We made it through the two border crossings (one out of Hong Kong, one into Shenzhen). We met Tony, the guy from the office next to me in Lexington, and had lunch at an Italian place as his stomach was upset and he wanted non-spicy food. I had risotto. Also strange.

The hotel (we are in the infamous one) is great. Nice room, restaurants and parks nearby. Everyone else has packed up for the night -- but Jesse and I are going to grab dinner later.

My one big flub (so far) this trip is that I bought this awesome power converter that will work in any country in the world. The trick is that it only takes two prongs for the US plug. My laptop needs three. So either I will get that worked out soon, or this will be my last blog for a while.
