That was a hilarious recounting of what I'm sure was the opposite of funny at the time! And I can totally relate. I was in one of the two other orchestras that were touring China at around the same time that your group was there. I think we all had ridiculously grueling schedules. It's so much fun to read other versions of the orchestra in China experience!

Here's mine - it's sort of in a daily photo blog format.

Oh China :) My favorite (other than the absurd switching from line to line in the airports for no clear reason) was the random fees for everything. When I moved back from China, I was charged for just about everything from canceling my visa to talking to the PSB about why I was leaving. Yup, they charged me for a conversation (actually it ended up being a series of conversations).

Despite that, I loved being there. If y'all went to Xian you were decently close to where I was. I was 8 1/2 hours north and west of Xian (I know, but that's the closest large population center). Sounds like it was a "good" experience :) Glad you made it back in one piece!
