Mysterious packages

morslaI recieved a package in the mail yesterday, from the Czech Republic. My sister has apparently conquered China by plane/train/car/bicycle, and headed off into Europe for Phase 2 of her world-spanning epic. Four countries into Europe, she found a spare moment to write a postcard and send some souveniers.
I have a postcard from a museum full of weapons and armour, a CD of photos (which I must show my parents how to view), and DVDs of Sin City and Princess Mononoke. I'm not sure what language the subtitles/dubbing will be in, or what film they may be from (I have seen three films subtitled with Bladerunner, despite none of those films actually being Bladerunner...). Not even sure if I can play them at home, due to region codes etc - I'll give them a try though.
She bustled through China for a month, before leaving the bicycle-murdering traffic of Shanghai for the quieter surrounds of Amsterdam. She's not sure where she's headed next, although there's plenty of time before she expects to reach the UK. Sometime after that, it's off to Canada and the USA. Beyond that, she'll eventually be back home again - bearing a few thousand photos from her new camera.
Dan and Yaz leave in a week or so for an open-ended trip to the UK. Many people I train with from Zi Ran Men are off to China again this September. I'll be doing my travel vicariously this year, looking on as the next set of adventures happen. One day, however, there's a mountain in Henan Province that I want to climb again...
