      Travel is fun. OK anywhere as long as a good exercise facility near. China has a plethora of Starbucks in all large cities. I know of three in Beijing. Their feeways are as congested in China as they are in California. Cost of living is very low compared to USA. China is not a place for WC. No ADA in China. I was told several times that I can go anywhere at anytime and be safe. In Beijing there are western hospitals with western physicans. China is a capitalist country with a free market place. True it is also a one party elected system. Tax is currently 6%. China has no state tax. Everywhere you go you find Pizza Hut. Food is very good and cheap in China. On the down side toilets are not handicap and usually consist on a hole in the floor. Bring your own TP. Louis
