Day 93
Where: The Guangzhou airport
Why dance?: My fingers are doing the mini version of me throwing my arms into the air -- at the time of the photo I was stuck in the Guangzhou airport, about 4-5 hours into what was supposed to be a 6 hour layover and ended up being closer to 8 thanks to a 'bad weather' delay. Despite other flights leaving at the same time ours was supposed to. Go figure.
Mostly my frustration was due to the fact that all of the best time wasting sites -- Facebook and anything google related -- are blocked in China. I spent a lot of time wandering around the terminal, buying extortionately expensive drinks, and trying to get proxy sites to work (unsuccessfully). I did end up watching the beginning of the Belgium v. Algeria World Cup match with some enthusiastic Algerians before a somewhat severe Chinese lady kicked everyone out. Every day an adventure!
