Back in China

So I made it back without any real issues, being home was a nice break but it's good to be here. I did weigh myself when I got home but forgot to on the way out, but was kindly told by several of the Chinese teachers at my school that I looked like I had gained weight. They're very subtle. I was up for about 30 straight hours and just crashed when I made it to my apartment, so the jet lag hasn't really been effecting me all that much. Construction in our building is still going strong which is miserable at times, but I'm not letting it get to me. It's been pretty rainy for the most part, which gives me the opportunity to whip out my blue pancho when I'm riding my scooter around to really blend in with the locals. Other than that nothing new to report.

Transferring trains and making the commute from the Shanghai airport back to Hangzhou was a real pain. Having to carry two 50 pound bags around doing it really didn't make it easy. At one point while I was cramming into a train in Shanghai it reminded me of a youtube video that I had seen a while ago. If I wasn't holding onto my bags tightly they would absolutely be gone.
