New day, New Hotel, New Tea Pot

China lifted their Block on "Blogs" .. good to be in contact again ...
About 8:45pm .. managed to start setting up in new digs (nice digs at that)
Moved out of Hui Hua in Chang Ping .. just too much construction noise .. will miss the location and proximity to all Chang Ping has to offer ..
Now at the; Hyatt Regency Dongguan Song Shan Lake. A true stand out in this area of China.
Sitting room .. looks like tea time: ...DSC02797

DSC02816 The Song Shan Lake development is world class planning. Approx 75 Square Kilometers developed by one of Hong Kong's Very rich;  Mr. Lee.
Lets see if I can capitalize on rural setting and get out and run!!!!

I went over to Liang An (Twin Straights) for a light dinner. This gave us a chance to visit another tea buddy (pictures later) Could not resist this extremely well crafted pot. Very simple with good ergonomics.
New Tea Pot:.... DSC02801 We spend most of our time drinking and discussing Pu-er .. "the market has really gone crazy" Demand and prices are on the hockey stick curve.  Do your homework before you buy Pu-er for investment. You must only deal with people you trust. Research information .. cross check what you find with at least two trusted sources. Buy it for the taste and enjoyment and you won't be disappointed.
In the tea game: ""Nam et ipsa scientia potestas est. Knowledge is power

Looks good. Glad you are comfortable for now. Talk to you latter. PS the new pot looks like the one here at home. Same general shape etc.

Oh, oh, oh... guess what?!?! I'll be staying at Hui Hua too.

Do most expats choose to stay there when sent to work in China for a bit?

Oh yea, welcome back. It's nice reading you, btw =)
