A Bryson in China

Sunday, September 29, 2013

I know it's been a while. Just reading about Usagi, the typhoon that recently ravaged Guangdong. Hope all my friends are okay. Here is some news from the typhoon, and other recent reads:

Massive Typhoon Usagi Lashes Guangdong, Taiwan, and the Phillipines

Usagi Attacked Southern China at Night

Of course, my friends at One for the Road pub, sent out an advance notice that the pub would be open through the storm in British tradition (or interpret as you wish). I don't see anything about it in their website or blog. Assume they are still partying.

But one of the more interesting things I saw about Usagi, is the damage to two Buddhas in Guangdong. You have to see for yourself: Depressed Buddhas

In the meantime, WalMart just continues to open stores in China: WalMart Opens More Stores in Small China Cities
