Phat Camp: 5/21/08-5/31/08

Yeeeeeaaaaah! Emily came for a visit.

The Goal: Keep her so incredibly busy that she forgets it's her birthday.

Highlights: Hong Kong hookah, catching the 5am ferry from Macau back to Hong Kong island, street food, massage-EEE, being invited into a local man's home near HouHai, bolobaos, dining in Beijing-Shanghai-and Hong Kong all in one day...and Starbucks.

Lowlights: Stacey getting battered at the Shenzhen airport, Shenzhen lady on the plane who never stopped talking and who still calls me on occasion...and, of course, the many many steps we climbed throughout the trip.

A pleasant bike ride around HouHai:

Em, thanks for making the trip! It's always a blast hanging out with you...and playing 20 questions.
