We are at the airport in Chiang Mai, Thailand waiting for our flight to Hangzhou, China. We'll be in China for 7 weeks and blogging may be sparse as flickr, gmail, and blogger, our main tools, are all blocked by the Chinese government. Not to mention that wikipedia, facebook, and imdb are also blocked.
Hopefully we'll find a way around the GFW and posting will continue. Stay tuned and please be patient with any "test" posts that may come your way.
We also want to send a big "GET WELL SOON" to Crash Eddy one of our regular readers and commenters. Ed, we miss you!

Sun-Ling and John have been traveling the earth since 2008 while blogging, eating vegetarian and vegan, and riding public transportation. We love uphill day hikes, 20th-century architecture, Roman ruins, all bodies of water, local markets, shopping for groceries, aqueducts, miradors, trip planning, blablacar, and more.

Sorry to hear Eddy is sick.
Kathy - thanks for the tip. I'm currently using ultrasurf to get around the GFW....Crash Eddy is home from the hospital. Hope to see him in this space soon.
Thanks for thinking of me so publically. I was discharged March 17 to home and been here since. Weak and visiting LifeTime Fitness to build strength.
