I'll be in Chongqing and Chengdu for the next week and am exciting to go to Sichuan Province. It's supposed to be the region of China that has the best food (Szechuan). Can't wait to get my hands on some Szechuan (Sichuan) chicken! That should be a nice change up from Beijing food.I'm really excited to see another city in China. Chongqing is the biggest city in China I believe with over 31 million people. I guess if I thought Beijing was too many people, this is going to be off the charts.
I'm feeling a little bit better, the antibiotics seem to be kicking in now. Hopefully by tomorrows flight I'll be 100% ready to go for my week of traveling. Even if I'm not, I'm still going to have a good time.
My roommates went to the Great Wall today, but I wasn't feeling great and decided to stay back and get better for this trip. I'm not too disappointed though, the great wall is 45 minutes away and I can go practically any day I want. I'm sure I can convince them to go next month with me. I want to see the wall covered in snow anyways.
Hopefully I'll have a good trip to Sichuan province. I can't wait to eat the food and see the sights. Make sure to check back in a week for the pictures of my trip.

I know you're going to have an amazing time, regardless of whether you feel 100% better or not. You won't have time to think about in between all of the travelling and food!
Can't wait to hear all the stories when you get back to Beijing! :) Liss!
Anthony Bourdain ate at some pretty sweet places when he went to sichuan. He ate this "chinese fondue" for lack of a better word. it consisted of a pot of these really hot peppers steeped in hot oil, then they stuck their meat and vegies in there to cook. He said it was awesome but super spicy. Eat some for me and Buddy! (Also eat some yogurt, it helps to reconstitute your GI flora). Aarthi
