Preparations for China

6 days and counting!

Here are a couple business items:

-Due to the fact that we're beginning our trip with a tour of Shanghai, my first post will probably be Thursday 24 or Friday 25 from Nanjing (minus 12 hours, eastern time). If I happen to have internet in Shanghai, what a pleasant surprise that will be for everyone!

-China has internet censorship. Therefore, I may not be able to use blogger.com for my posts. In that event, I will be posting on an NC State blog that I have set up at the following address:

http://blogs.lib.ncsu.edu/wheresdannow

If both of those fail, I will post updates on facebook and send updates through personal contacts.

Now for packing...
