Episode 2.............................
Its early morning on the 15th, I am getting a quick up-date typed whilst the Boss sleeps !!!
Now kitted out in my new thermal undies, I am cold-proof, but spontaneous "canodling" is now impossible as the bloody things are like a second skin and takes an age to get he buggers off !!!!!!...but I will cope somehow.
We pottered aroung Chengdu yesterday, masses of people about, all in holiday mood and very friendly. Fireworks are now almost continual, so we bought some from a Street Stall and found a convenient corner to let them off. Everybody wanted to see this crazy Westerner lighing his fireworks and I got a lot of advice..but couldnt understand a word !!! Even the cops came over and joined in...but maybe they were thinking "one more firework and we will haul him off to jail ":icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin:
There is such a great holiday spirit about, it is easy to get caught up in it and just have fun...I havent laughed so much, or relaxed so much in years. Aways Ming is there "directing the traffic" and looking out for my every need....so incredible to be so spoiled, I almost feel guilty about it.
If everything is not just right, woe betide anyone who gets in her way....WOW.......I call her my "pocket rocket"....so much energy and drive in such a slight Lady.
I am being totally organised and taken care of...its scary :icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin:
The Shangri-La Hotel is rated 5 star and deserves it...great place, very new and modern. I have a flash Executive Suite and I pay 1900 RMB per night but I did a deal with my Business for "stay 3 nights and get the third night free", so overall it works out at about under 1600 per night.
Last night for Valentines Day, we went to a Western Restaraunt...Cafe Z.....which was very nice, the food was International Buffet and they layed on all the goodies for Valentines...gifts of roses for the Ladies, free Champagne and all the trimmings of the occasion...all very romantic and we had a very cosy and intimate dinner together....hormones working ovetime !!!!!
Maybe it was the Champagne....maybe the thermal undies.....but I was becoming more and more convinced that this Woman is the best thing to happen to me in a long, long time......and I begin to believe we can have a wonderful future together.......the next few days will see this become clearer for both of us, I am sure.
Today is a lazy day, I want to do some sightseeing and have a look at some antique shops and local places of interest.
I KNOW you are waiting for photos, but my limited free time...and computer skills put this on the back burner for today, but I will have a go to upload some tonight...if my Baobei will keep her hands off me !!!!!
Keep smiling all....I am !!!!!!
