More like I got told at 9 pm last night, and the flight leaves out tomorrow am. Not only that, I have to wait there at Hong Kong until my Visa is approved.

I hope you are having more fun than I.
I'm not finding this too enjoyable atm.
I've been here for a week, and there is no natural wildlife left. EVERY nook and cranny is stuffed with agriculture (rice and corn). I've seen a total of 5 dogs and 3 horses, and 2 oxen on this trip.
Animals are not populous here at all.

I'm excited about visiting Shanghai next year.

Should be a fun exciting time for you. Shanghai is a fairly progressive city, with many European and American visitors, so there will be pleanty of people that speak english, and at things to find to eat that won't make you sick.

Meanwhile, I'm in the best hotel called: Lei Zu Hotel in Yanting, Mianyang, Sichuan province if you want to look it up. Or here:

Meanwhile, I wish I was here for a vacation and was not dependant upon the customer for transportation. Meanwhile I wait for the customer's job to be read to run the unit.

My parents live in Shanghai and my brother and his wife live in Northern China. My brother is just about fluent in mandarin chinese. They will be my guide through China and they'll be able to tell me what I should or shouldn't eat. It's going to be very interesting!

Sounds like you've the perfect guides and you'll have a great time. I'd be excited too.
