Dumb Americans Arrive!

What day is it? Wednesday, Thursday, Friday?? Jesus, I have no idea where we are... I'll attempt to begin to download pictures soon...

OK. 2 hour drive from Seattle to Bellingham. Picked up by Sam and Bob Waunch in his Piper Super Cub-1 hour flight to Vancouver. Thank god Bob was sober. 9 hours to Narita. Not too bad. Narita sucks, by the way... Nobody knows what is going on. Welcome to the Orient. 3/4 hours to Beijing-arrived around 10pm. No problems. Holy Christ, what an airport. Welcome to Red China-BOW DOWN. These guys are on their way. Made it through customs-had an interesting 15minute conversation w/ Mr. Hot Fuzz that I was actually the guy on my passport pic.

Newie and Merle Ann were there to stick us in a cab to Russ's place. NOTE-cabbies like backing up on the highway for giggles. Whatever. Merle Ann almost punched the guy for stiffing her $.75. Love her.

Fried. Saw Russ. Began to fade. Shared a nice twin bed w/ Sam Sr. Sexy. Jesus. Got coffee now-been told to move to tea soon. Excellent.

Off to the great wall. Sim Ma Tai section. Supposed to be cool. On our own for the 3 hour trip outside the city. I'll let you know. We'll see. Call the authorities if you hear nothing for a few days.

Tomorrow we whore for tickets.

Oh congrats to Team UBS for another stellar softball season. 2nd place again. Selah.

Drop me a line.

I would question your nationality as well. Just DO NOT SHOW THEM THE TATTOO.

Nothing like getting up close and persoanl with daddy.....two Sammys sleeping in a bed one rolled over and .....I'll stop there.

Do not fall off the wall...

Congrats on your arrival by the way---that is big.
