Rabbit Run

Hello Devoted Readers,
I started a new book and time pushes on here in China.  I do have to admit that I have, against my better judgement, started an internal count down.  I really do not want to wish away my time here but right now what waits for me in Brookline out weighs the promise of pandas in Chengdu or any of the other fun things still on my itinerary.  Having said that my time in Xian continues to be almost always stimulating.  I recently had a very welcomed visit from Chris Smith.  His enthusiasm pushed us to visit a few spots I had my eye on but required the right company.  We discovered that the pink elephant exists in China.  Good beer is hard to find here but our powers combined sniffed it out.  I updated the pictures with some of our recent activities.
Cheers!

Reading Updike in Xian? Very cool to see that Chris made the journey. In the next series, it'll be less "Brad: a Blog" and more like "Brad is Back".

So very happy you had company/visitor Chris. At pizza gathering Saturday, I kept thinking, Wish Brad was here...c'mon 5/28

I agree, Carol, on both fronts!!! I'm so happy Chris visited and I'm also so happy it's May! Brad's homecoming month :-)

I've started my own when does Brad come home internal timer too. Half the fun of going to Peet's is wondering if I'll run into you.

And, very soon, you certainly will!!! We plan to spend a lot of time there this summer :-)
