Had a great Christmas here in Shanghai with a few Aussie's I met in Chongqing. Also, due to their generosity, was able to upload some more photos. Enjoy and descriptions to follow, some need none. In addition, just finished reading Thomas Friedman's new book, "Hot, Flat, and Crowded". It is a must read so pick-up a copy and learn how America's economy can be revived and decrease global warming at the same time. If you haven't read his other book, "The World is Flat", you may want to read it first. Not to say it is the end all be all, but really ties a lot of things together.
Was able to talk with the family, who is celebrating Christmas and a wedding in New Orleans via Skype, another amazing advance in technology. Almost perfect video and phone call for free. It was so good to see everyone partying their ass off and celebrating. In addition to talk with my beautiful girlfriend Sarah and her parents as if I was enjoying Christmas with them. So many wonderful people in the world, if we can only be everywhere at once. Hope all of you were able to celebrate in your own way and have a Happy New Year, wherever you may be.
