A Hat For Matt

Beijing! Oh deer. What a crazy whirlwind 24 hours it has been! We worked out that it was 2 planes, 8 trains, 3 buses and 1 taxi-ride, yes Taxi Ride (Get set everybody…we’re on our way). We’ve covered like 2500 kms and it really does feel like it. Pretty over Beijing and it’s public transport that’s for sure. The “main event” was far overshadowed by the other games that were on, and well Jon Stevens didn’t exactly float my boat. I was also disappointed in the sheer lack of crowd participation during Living End’s “White Noise”…like no-one was doing the echo (see post title). However people seemed to know all the words to Manly Manly Manly Manly (sung to the tune of Olê Olê Olê Olê).  But it was free, and something to remember for quite some time, thankfully Purikura washed away any possible bad taste that Sydney may have left in my mouth and my feet.
