Touchdown!!!

Im here. Im actually here. Zach picked me up at the airport. The hotel driver drove us to the apartment. Traffic is crazy. No rules but it seems to somehow work. The police do not do anything. Probably just there for the looks of it. The apartment is amazing. Got what a westerner needs. Zach is happy about the flatscreen tv in the living room. Im happy about the toiletseat warmer. Nice on a cold day! Think I will be spending some days there...stomach already a bit upset. Have a little shop down in the bassment of the building. Like a convenience store but with a huge section of wine and spirits. Nice! They even have Coopers!!! Took at taxi to a shopping centre in the area. Its important to have the destination written down in Chinese as the taxi drivers do not speak any English. We got there in one piece...no seatbelts in the cab. Zach went crazy with the shopping. Got a fake winter jacket and a fake Swiss made watch. Its pretty cheap though. Just need to bargain. Its a shoppers heaven! Found a Starbucks across the street. Tastes the same as in any part of the world. Then we tried to find the bar strett Sanlitun. I had an idea where it was, but Zach wanted to take a cab. The taxidriver took us around the block and dropped us off about 500 metres from where we had caught it. Nice one Zacky! Had a huge walk back to the apartment. Its absolutely freezing here. Nice to feel alive!! Now time to go shopping at the Carrefour supermarket. 10 min by cab! /Martin
