Nice Looks like you guys had a good time....

[jasonledyard1]

Thanks for sharing your trip! It looked like great fun.

[GeneralFault]

What beer is that at the end you were drinking? Was it Tsingtao in a can?

[nickisun]

@GeneralFault It's actually "Phasa" from the holy waters of Tibet. We were lucky to have a tour guide with the hookups from Tibet, haha. You can't find this beer anywhere else. However, I think this beer will be ready for purchase in a few years!

@chinopino7 That is so cool! I would LOVE to see your video when you're finished :) I would like to visit the Philippines one day too! I'm having a wonderful 3 day weekend in LA--covering the ISA concerts produced by Wong Fu and Far East Movement! Videos out soon!

@nickisun wtf? how did u get to chill with martin yan? i'm confused

[nickisun]

@lucirz He's a UC Davis alum and I wanted to go on a trip with him. He gives tours at least twice a year. If you're interested in going, check out his website: yancancook [dot] com

[lucirz]

@nickisun price?

[nickisun]

@lucirz It depends on what tour you go to, but the price includes international airfare both ways, transportation, hotel accommodations, food, pretty much everything is taken care of. Expect to pay anywhere from $3,500-5,000

[viidii151]

omg the lil dumplings r so cuteee.... make me so hungry now :))

[nickisun]

@viidii151 They were SOOOO good too!

[yqtv]

i wana go to china someday! nice vid =)

[nickisun]

@yqtv Thank you love! You totally should! I was amazed at the differences everywhere I went. In one city, you can see the total advancement of technology, while in other cities, everything is still made my hand. It was mind-blowing.

-Did you just do the sprinkler in a tai chi class? or was that another area of the park for dance exercise?

-Your are such a klutz, but a lovable one at least!

-How much luggage did you start with and how much did you come back with? haha seems like you picked up a few things over two weeks, but I can't recall anything being gigantic, so maybe you made out all right.

[nickisun]

@kimoballer Heck ya, I was making my own moves..or should I say, introducing new ones? hahaha

Making fun of my klutziness now are we?!

I started with one big bag that wasn't all the way full...but I had to purchase a second luggage on the way home. It's interesting since they only allow one luggage departing, but allow two luggages (for free that is) returning!

[kimoballer]

Ooh tons of comment ideas passing through my mind. Too many to remember haha, so for now I'll go with:

-I NEEEEEDDD to go to China to visit. There's the Roots program out of SF that I might apply for so I can visit my ancestral villages. Or I might just save up money and wait to go with my paw-paw, she's been wanting the family to go for a while now.

-airblown candy animals look awesome! Hope you didn't scare the dad and kid by randomly offering them candy haha!
