Earthquake in Taiwan affect my life

Where am I? Fortunately, I'm in Foshan now, not Taiwan. The earth did not influence me physically, but it do affect my life seriously these days.

The earthquake caused 6 major fiber cable between China and America broken. Since most of my favorites are american sites, I can't even start my daily routine now. I can't access del.icio.us to review my favor pages; I can't access flickr to update my latest photos; Most importantly, I can't access bloglines to check all my interested blogs. I have to use proxy to access those sites, very inconvenient...

Hopefully the cable can be repaired soon. Optimistic opinion is, it will be OK within 2 or three weeks. Anyway, it's a great opportunity for our internal websites :)

Sanya vacation


Beautiful beach


This is a typical Hainan fruit, coconut. I didn't drink any boiled water during the vacation, cause I drink the coconut milk instead. Coconut is very common and extremely cheap in Sanya, vendors were selling fresh coconut everywhere, 2 RMB for a whole coconut!


The world's largest kwan-yin statue, even taller than the statue of liberty!






Haha, my toes with sands on them.


This is my personal favorite. I am so relaxed, just lie down there hours and do nothing. This is so-called "vacation". It's not travel, but vacation. When I travel, I will create a very intensive schedule and put as much places into the schedule as possible. Sanya is not the place for this kind of traveler. It offers quiet beach so time can stop there.
