I am about to wrap up my 4th day of Hotel Standby in Guangzhou, and NOT traveling around the Far East, so I decided to share some observations of my stay in this local area. I would not say these are "earth shattering" or even "astute observations", but they are certainly mine and I just wanted to pass them along:
- Flip flops and/or sandals are required footwear for all motorcycle drivers
- The required seating position of all infants (2 years or less) riding on their parent's motorcycle is on the fuel tanks.
- Infants are not allowed to wear helmets or shoes when riding on these fuel tanks
- All license plates use alpha numerical numbers, even though Mandarin and Cantonese is the written language??
- All logos on shirts, bags, jackets, etc are written in English (see note above)
- Women don't smoke
- Short shorts and high heels seem to be the dress of every young chic women
- Men will soon out number women by 2 to 1 in China's future
- Even with these odds (see above) women walk 2 steps behind men
- Everyone works or at least has a uniform and is standing in a work area
- Work rules?? What rules? The hotel staff, waiters, concierge, etc are on duty from late at night and greet you again early in the morning
- The banana bread at breakfast is excellent
