Well, I have to be up in four hours in order to get to the airport on time. But I'm not worried, I know I will sleep plenty on the plane. Unless there's a crying baby. I really hope there isn't a crying baby...
I'm not really worried about the flight or this trip in general. I've been to Australia, New Zealand, France, and Japan... when I heard the flight was only 14 hours, I figured... what a cinch! Australia was about 16 hours. Not too worried about the language, because I know I'll get by. Though I have amazed myself at how light I can pack now. I think that the element of excitement about going to a different country is sort of gone, because of my previous travels. I'm very laid back about this whole ordeal. I guess my only concern is if the homework/schoolwork part of it is going to stress me enough that I'm not going to fully enjoy this trip. God knows the reading packet was enough.
Here are my questions for this trip:
1. I wonder what the graffiti looks like in Shanghai, if there is any.
2. I wonder about the difference between American Chinese and real Chinese food.
3. What is their fashion inspired by?
4. What wildlife might I see there, if any?
5. How do they treat American foreigners versus other foreigners?
Odd questions I know, but over my travels, it is this sort of stuff I think about.
