Planning Japan and revisiting China.



As I may have mentioned before me and Fee are planing to stop off in Japan on our way to Thailand as part off our Honeymoon trip. While looking on the net for cool places to go and things to see I started having flash backs of out trip to China.

We had a great time there visiting Fee's parents and we did some amazing stuff. We stayed in China with her 'Mama & Papa', got to visited Hong Kong during a typhoon and flew to Beijing. Plus we did all this while eating our own weight in dumplings along the way. But let me tell you something, being a tattooed white guy in China sure makes you stand out! People were grabbing my arm to see if the pictures would rub off, rather odd but I got kind of use to being looked at like an alien. 

It made me wonder if people would react in the same way while in Tokyo, and after seeing what some of the kids over there are wearing......the answer is a firm NO! Haha


While in China we took LOADS of pictures, but here are a few random ones out of the 200. Enjoy!

Some cool street art on the side of a restaurant, went up the whole side of the building but it was hard to get a good shot from across the street.



This is Art.....not just a big gross looking pig thing.


You cant go to China without dropping in to say hi the Bruce Lee.


Great piece of wall art on the entrance to a shop at '798' which is a huge collection of galleries at an old industrial estate. With well over 200 galleries, its well worth a visit..... if you have 3 days to kill.


Fee posing on this 'Wall' in China everybody goes on about.


Mr Mao!


I don't pee in anything below a 3 star, true story.
