Ride or Die from Chongqing to Shanghai!
Damn I’ve been jet lagged as shiat!!!
It has taken a ride down the Yangtze River, a couple days in
Shanghai, and about 25hrs in airports and planes plus
a bunch of naps to get this blog up!
So here we go!
The first day of my cruise down the
river began in the city of Chingqing.
A bustling Chinese city I had never even heard of with a population
of 38 million!!!!!! Â How the Hell did this little town
miss my radar all this time?
Aside from 38 million homosapiens living in the area
this city also boasts one of the best  Zoo’s in
all of China with the most of these guys in it in all of Asia!
- One of the lazy pandas in the Chongqing Zoo! Lazy Panda, kinda sounds like a dope asian lounge!
After the pandas and the zoo I went down the road to
ANOTHER Pagoda! Â While there I ran into
some of my Chinese high school fans
who had just taken their exams!
- Taking time with some fans for a photo opp!
After chatting with these guys for a minute it was time to hit the cruise
on the Yangtze River on the Century Sun cruise ship!
- The first stop after Chongqing on the Century Sun!
The boat was just the relaxation station that I needed after my
visit to Tibet and providing the tunes on the ship
were these Eastern Europeans:
- The Baker Street Duo ready to make the beats for the streets so their family can eat!
These cats were pumping out the bombest tunes from
Garth to Willie while we were rocking down the locks of the
3 Gorges Damn!
- Here I am with the Baker Street Duo and my dance partner!
After dancing my face off for a bit it was time to drop more than 500 feet
and go through the lock a process that takes a full 5 hours or more!
- Shadows from the deck on the gates of the lock.
After retiring to my cabin and letting the captain do his job
and get us all through the locks and pop, lock, and
dropping the the boat all night I woke up
with a tiny hangover to go and meet
the kids at a school that were
putting on a little show
me and my friends on the boat!
- With some of my new hommies!
- Meeting two students at the school.
- Showing the kids how to use my iPhone 3g, getting the new one tomorrow!
After a really great day with the children in a small country side school
it was time for a celebration with my favorite tour guide Iowa.
It just so happened to be his birthday and so we decided
to have a little party for our wonderful guide!
- Got my boy Iowa to don the Cain Cap and threw a copy of my U! Mag at him!
All in all, the celebration was a hit with Iowa,
and I think that everyone cried just a little!
Very soon we would be hitting up Shanghai
and the trip to China would be over in just a few short days for me.
Shanghai was the dopest city possibly on the whole Asia tour!
- The Bund! in Shanghai!
- Market in Shanghai.
While walking around the city of Shanghai I was a little sad because I
had met some great people and yes a ride or die chick!
My time in the city and the Far East was about to be over,
and I didn’t want it to be.
But you know such is life, I wanna say I will be back in Shanghai!
- Shanghai Bund by night!
China is history folks, but I wanna say that China is the Bongest!
Def gonna miss the kids in China, but I have a big issue
I had to get back to in America the BP oil spill.
That’s right in late July if you’re in Miami
and Key West get ready and check me out!
I am going to be in the big bad FLA
seeing what the damage is down there
and seeing if Kevin Costner’s oil
vacuum is a reality.
Until then
we got a big 4th coming up and some
other bomb ass trips in store so get ready to play this summer!
~XOXO~
