Food and eating is the main social thing here for Chinese. I've never seen a city with so much choice, and with the Olympics coming, it's getting to be my favorite city in the world.
Watch Discovery Channel, they show all the buildings they are creating for the Olympics. I work next door to the new CCTV skyscraper (2 leaning towers with a bridge...looks mental!), a first in engineering. And at my g/fs house, i can see the "birdsnest" stadium and swimming centre. The swimming centre is immense and a world 1st. It's built based on the basics of mother natures consructions, and is made of bubbles in the middle.
I'm a lucky guy right now. There more construction going on in Beijing this year than in the entire of Europe. Immense!
