A lesson in patience
Waiting in lines, even if you do have a reservation, is part of the
whole Shanghai Expo experience. It's not so bad. We saw the Turkey
Pavilion and are now in line for the Ireland Pavilion. Next, the UK. A nice volunteer recommended we come back at 5 pm to the China
Pavilion and sneak in through the group reservation line, which we
might try if we decide to stay that late. Beautiful day, though, mid-70s, a light haze. It's funny, Facebook, Blogger, Posterous are all blocked when I use my
laptop and the hotel's internet link, but I can access all the sites
with my Blackberry, must be because I am on a foreign (Hong Kong)
phone service. Alas, lack of Flash on Blackberry browser makes editing
blog posts impossible.
