I have been in Beijing for the past couple of days and seen some famous sights. Here are my final thoughts before I leave for the boonies later today:
The Palace Museum? Reeks of paint.
The Great Wall? Reeks of urine in many places. And I cannot believe that they didn't have cable cars until a few years ago. Thank God for the cable cars.
The Ming Tombs? Reeks of moldy basement with a slight touch of urine.
Speaking of urine, am thinking of the bathrooms of the northwest with increasing trepidation. Apparently, I should be hoping for holes in the ground because they at least don't smell or look as scary as really dirty and run-down indoor ones. With advice like that, well, what's there to fear?
Oh, they won't let me upload pictures so er, learn to use your imaginations, people.

Perhaps the best solution, my dear grey ghost, would be to cut off your nose. It seems that would solve a lot of your travel soucis.
