Day 1: The Landing


Once I landed, the first thing that I noticed was that nothing is in English, obvious to some, not me. I eventually found my way to the arrivals where some lovely people were waiting to pick me up to take me to Yangzhou. Once we started driving I was stunned by the scale of pretty much everything. There were two overpasses that were under construction around 1-2 miles long, and hundreds and hundreds of 'commie blocks' that are all carbon copies of each other.


The second thing I noticed is that my driver was a nutcase. He was metamorphosising into Dominic Torreto from The Fast&Furious, we were weaving in and out of cars at 150KM/h beeping and flashing like nobodies business. Suffice it to say that I got no sleep in the car.
