| - Voyage It's time for an update and I've been wanting to put these pictures up for a while now. I've been back for almost a month now, but like usual I'm extremely slow at everything I do. So here are the pictures from my trip.
The first stop was Penang, Malaysia. This place is definately the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life, and had the best food I've ever eaten. Except for the Century Egg. Ugh... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand-year_egg

I thought I would take a picture of these monkies since I've never just seen monkies out walking the streets.

And here's a close up. These guys would let you walk right up to them, but I wasn't going to touch them after watching "Outbreak" when I was a kid. =P

After a week of partying by night and being escorted around town in a bulletproof Ambassador BMW by day we headed to Singapore for just 1 day. It was rather uneventful so I just took some pictures of my hotel room since it was just so damned cool. It's boring, but I'm going to make look.




It's like my apartment! But a lot fucking nicer!
Okay, that's all I got for that. Yeah, boring. And now...Hong Kong, quite possibly the coolest fucking city in all of the world.

Like most of the large Asian cities Hong Kong likes to show off how big their dick is with too many neon lights every night, but on the weekend nights the definately prove genital superiority with a sychronized firework/laser light show from the tops of the skyscrapers. It's something else to see.

Bentleys, Ferraris, Benzes, Beamers...everywhere you look. Stupid rich Asians. I got this photo for all you ricers out there. I saw some that were much better but didn't have my camera =[ I think it might be kinda dark...but yeah, lots of Skylines to be seen.

From Hong Kong, a ferry ride accross the bay to Zhuhai, China where I had Fish-Head soup, nothing memorable. Then another ferry ride to Shenzhen, China where I bought me as much fake Louie Vuitton and Gucci as I could fit in my suit case. Those little Chinese make some perfect knock-offs.
From Shenzhen to a little further inland, accross some dirtroads and shit I thought I would only see in the movies to a city called Dongguan, where I had my first good encounter with the Asian version of "karaoke." Karaoke is the national past-time of China it seems. Everyday was wake up, visit customers, go to dinner with customers, go to karaoke with customers. Basiclly you and your party are given a lounge with lotsa sofas and big screens to sing, then you are brought alcohol and snacks, and finally the fun part...about 8-10 girls are brought in and you get to point and choose who your date is for the night. If you don't like what you see, next, and 10 more come in until you find one. This is where and how most business is done in China....strange fuckers, but I wouldn't mind it.
Then to Ganzhou, boring, and Shanghai where some good fun was had. Before Shanghai, New York was the biggest city I've ever been to and Shanghai makes New York look like a backwater hick town...it is extremely huge, extremely packed, and extremely rich. I went to the mall and you can't find a Gap or Old Navy type store, everything is firstclass French or Italian stores. I was stupid enough to actually get a shirt but we won't talk about that. =\
Enough of that, time for eye-candy. I was lucky enough to get to spend 1 night in the nicest hotel in Asia at the top of the Jin Mao Tower, tallest tower in China. It was high class. This pic is from outside my room looking down from the 85th floor to the 53rd below where the hotels floors start. It was awesome.


After about 4 days in Shanghai my dad decides he's tired of Asia and gets on a fucking plane and goes home and leaves me in China alone with two more countries to visit. It kicked ass. I went to Taipei, Taiwan next and met up with a guy that lives there who I took around Dallas when he came to visit, so he took good care of me. One night after coming back from a club I go to the front desk of my hotel and they tell me I have a package to sign for. His damned dad bought me a PSP and two games as a gift. Anyways here a picture of the world's tallest building. Taipei 101.

And the view from the top...

Taiwan was so much like the U.S. Except everyone was Asian, it kicked ass. Okay almost done, then I was off to Tokyo to spend 2 nights which was really fucking boring because the Japanese are smug bastards who, even though they can speak English, usually choose not to when you ask them something. Nothing cool happened in Japan and I never want to go back
Okay I think that's all I got. Fuck yeah. |
