And it came upon us so FAST !

Wow... Here it is the last day, how did it get here so fast? Seems like just a moment ago we were packing to go, giving Maui and Kauai kisses. There are still so many things that we would like to do here. Well, I guess those things will just have to wait till the next visit to China. While en route to the airport today, Jeff and I were sorting through the trip. We decided that we should do and entire entry on food... so be it. That will be my next entry, w/ lots of accompanying pictures. We also thought that a comparison of prices for everyday items would be a worthwhile entry. So.... here goes.

All prices have been converted into US $$$:




Price of a 1.75 liter Absolute Vodka $ 14.00
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00



Price of dinner for two in a Szechwan restaurant including bottle water and 1 liter beer $7.00
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of a 25minute taxi ride all over Shanghai $2.50
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of .65 Kg of assorted Chinese sweets 72 cents
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of dinner for two Beijing "hot pot," with bottled water, dessert, and liter of beer $11.00
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of tourist Tee-shirt (best quality) $3.00
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of a metro ride across the city of Shanghai 33 cents
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Price of 53 cans of diet Pepsi $16.00
Price of 2 glasses of Coco Cola Light $ 16.00

Good reason for Jeff to switch to Pepsi Light for the duration of this trip...
