A Little Shout Out from Cousin Robbie

Papa (and family)

Just arrived for my third trip to Beijing in as many months.  I
thought Papa you would get a kick out of these fun facts:

1.  I got a haircut and it cost me $2.80 US  they used scissors
notclippers and washed my hair twice.  Thats a pretty swanky
barber shop!
2.  there is a restaurant downstairs from the office that
sells theTALL tsing tao beers .80 cents US - although there is
a wide range of prices you will pay in beijing... by way of contrast
I went to a Mexican restaurant here (actually not too bad), however
5 people with drinks was $250 US... slightly more food and drink at
the .80 beer place about $40 US.  that might have been my last trip
for mexican until I get back to the states.

3. and my favorite fact:  I just mailed my democratic ballot
from communist China

Love you all
