Survivor China


This is too funny not to share.

We have been planning a trip to China and I have not been all that excited about it. Sure I love seeing other cultures and visiting ancient places of history but I am put off by the prospect of crowded cities and then the extreme: squat toilets in the "backwoods" areas.

I complained so much that we changed our original plans and have hooked up with a cruise company to do the land tour as a precruise expedition. There's a better chance of not getting bad food, getting lost where we absolutely know zilch about the language, and of course, perhaps finding Western style toilets.

This afternoon I was watching CBS as I ate my lunch and what to my amazement should appear but a commercial for the new season of Survivor---Survivor: China!!

I figure if that survivor gets a million bucks for surviving that trip, I should certainly get some kind of compensation. Hmmmm.
