pirates of Beijing
First time blogging from the BB. I think it isn't worth it, but I'm bored.
In Beijing they speak Mandarin (putong hua), but with an accent. Basically, the last word gets an 'er' (pronouced like 'are') on the end. Once I started to listen for it, everyone began sounding like pirates. Arrgh!
More from Suzhou. Now at Beijing airport; slightly more exciting than Kaohsiung airport. Less exciting than the DSM Greyhound station.
