[quote=SPORTENNIS              ,5293]Hi Fran and Elcabron...Ni Hao!Thanks for the reply. I have to admit that after your posts I will probably be "shocked culturally". I don't mind. In fact, I am looking forward to it. I wonder why the spitting is performed the way it is? It sounds so dramatic. Fran, I am an adventurous eater but I don't think I can eat dog either...ofcourse thats not to say that its not delicious. However, I felt the  same way about eel until I ate it in France. It was great. I do have two dogs so I guess I'll stick to eating the Peking Duck.Fran, you asked about where I'll be traveling. A friend of mine and I are taking an escorted tour to Beijing, Xi'an, Shanghai, Suzhou, Guilin, and Hong Kong. As Elcabron (who has been a big help to me with all of his replies) has mentioned, I'll be staying at superior and luxury hotels so, to some degree, I'll be somewhat sheltered. I hope that I can experience the people of China though. So, on the days that we will be "on our own" I hope to venture out.Elcabron, do you travel all over the place...what do you do for a living. And Fran, you're a far way from England. What brings you to China?Thanks again for all your replies...you have no idea how close you bring me to China. I appreciate it.Brent[/quote]
