Shanghai'ed
 
Here I sit in Shang Hai . My flight is delayed (maybe cancelled, we'll see) . I can't get out to reticket on another airline cause i have already gone through the Chinese outgoing immigrations (yep , unlike the US , they check you coming and going here).

The last thing you need when facing 24 hours on planes and in airports is to face a big delay right at the start.

OK . That's my bitching session. I feel better now......NOT!! :(
