Durring my road-ride today I bunny-hopped a 3.5 ft black snake.

This is Joseph’s first travel China log from, er Tampa. I was quite heart-broken to arrive and find out that they changed the flight to 6am instead of 10am. I didn’t realized how excited I was to get to China until I heard I was going to have to wait a whole additional day to go to China and see my fam. The other funny thing, is that I will miss my birthday. I will cross the international date line while flying to China, so I will skip ahead 24 hours on September 11th thereby mostly missing my birthday. I leave Detroit at 2:25 pm Central Time Sept 10th and arrive at 8:45 pm Sept 11. Crazy. I guess I’ll just stay 30. I thought it was only possible to miss your birthday if your birthday was on February 29th. But I have now, by fortunate misfortune, found a new way. I will start a stay-young-by-skipping-your-birthday airline. Well, maybe at least they’ll give me special treatment on the flight. One question I hope to answer while I am in China. Perhaps one of the most important questions
