Love tree. Blind scam. GUILE! Kuai. Ho Hai district. Bloody Marys. Bu Yao. Bird's Nest. Water Cube.
Radley's chat with Quincey Jones during the Olympics:
Q - How old are you?
Rad - 24.
Q - I've had hangovers longer than you've been alive.
798 Art District. The Chinese contemporary art I saw was really, really good. Peking Gallery. Surprise visit from Pat Maloney. Ex pats, diplo kids and army brats. Indian Kitchen. Q Bar. Punk. Bottle service. Unexpected events. First sleep in of the trip. Sunday Funday. Love China. Daytime bar hop. Dumplings. Paddy Osheas. Foot massage. Canon. Big eyes. Where did the time go? Blaring music all night. Great Wall.. it really is a GREAT wall. 2 hour hike. Alex. Corn fields. Random restaurant. Leaky nipples. The 'veg' who eats chicken. Car accident. Vehicle almost rolls.
