I’m not sure what the trip holds in store, but the tickets are booked. February 1, Jeff Thompson and I are flying out to Chengdu, Sichuan China for Chinese New Year. We just paid for our one-way tickets, 1000 kuai. Not a bad deal, especially when you continue to pretend that renminbi are just play money. We’re not sure when we’re coming back.
Some of you might be saying, Alex. Chinese New Year falls of February 12 this year! What’s up with that!? During Chinese New Year, more people migrate at once than at any time on the planet ever. So I am avoiding the crowds.
