Stock market on the rise

On the table next to me in the restaurant I can sneek peek to follow the stock market. Everything is still pointing up, and private investors are selling their cars to free up money to invest more.

Aksjehysteriet er fortsatt aktuelt i Kina, alle piler peker opp, og mannen på gata selger unna sine eiendeler for å gå inn med hud og hår. På nabo bordet i restauranten sjekkes siste kursutvikling.

The alchemist

My own massage oil essences, it doesn't quite become gold, but it becomes
pretty good!

men det blir veldig godt!

Sauna, hot bath, and massage centre

Self indulgence doesn't cost a fortune in china, at least if you go with the
local options. I am VIP at the 5 floor centre close to me, open 24 hours a
day, and for 30 RMB you can get away with a hot bath, hot sauna, relaxation
room with movies, and a 40 minutes massage session.

Å skjemme seg selv bort koster ikke en formue i Kina. Jeg er VIP kunde på
ett 5 etasjers senter nære der jeg bor, åpent 24 timer i døgnet, og for 24
NOK får man ett varmt bad, varm sauna, hvilerom med film, og en 40 minutter
lang massasje.

October has arrived again, the Oktoberfest too

Here is a real Bravaria band flewn in to entertaid, and the ”Ein prosit for der gemütlichheit” was played over and over.. I was here last year as well same time, and it’s very easy to find, just Google “Paulainer AND Shanghai” and I am right at the top of the list, no wonder since I misspelled the name (do you see the mistake?).

Her er ett ekte Bravaria band fløyet inn, og skålevisen “ein prosit for der gemütlichheit” gikk igjen og igjen,.. Jeg var på plass også i fjor, og sånn flyr tiden.
