Talking about Christmas, ErZi & me did a quick survey – non of the MMs in our room that night know what Christmas is all about – except the innocent looking DJ, newly arrived from Fujian. I was impressed when she went on to tell the story of Jesus to other MMs – and she later confessed that she came from a Christian family and was planning to go to the local Church the next morning! And the locals have also started one new practice – they give each other apples on Christmas Eve – you know “苹果” rhymes with “平” in “平安夜” – who said Chinese are not innovative.

I’m heading to CP today, and then to Guangzhou for the countdown to the New Year. I was planning to head north after that, but managed to convince my Chinese business associates to meet me in the warmer south.

Enjoy your break and I hope to catch you and other bros, including SBX & PTR in the new year!
