@cupcake_coaster Even rarer to get an actually sunny day in Chongqing! For me the only thing that got spited by rain in this part of the trip was the official drone show lol

Currently in the midst of the herculean task that is sorting through 1000+ China photos - here's a few snaps from Happy Valley Chongqing, a surprisingly strong park where I rode another stand-out GCI and my first Chinese B&M wing 🎢

And so another (mostly) fantastic Chinese trip comes to an end - 3 new cities, 21 new coasters, and a whole lot of great memories 🇨🇳🎢

So funny story... I trekked like an hour to go watch this show just to find out they had MOVED IT FORWARD AN HOUR AT ZERO NOTICE and it had already happened. Truly the most China way to end a trip - miscommunication and arbitrary decision-making

LIVE: Drone Light Show Tonight, Chongqing’s sky is lit with a grand drone show. Hundreds of drones paint the night with light, weaving stories of grit, care, and every drop of sweat. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@themeparks101 I know it's just ignorance, but it still sucks. I just want to ride some rides in a foreign country, I shouldn't be made to feel totally conspicuous all the time!

@SamMarkWill They don’t mean anything by it. More curious than anything. I usually just reply zhongguoren, which usually make them go quiet.

I like China, and I am a fan of the Chinese theme park scene. However, I am truly, utterly sick of every other kid I pass at one of these parks commenting on the "waigouren" (sometimes whispering to friends, sometimes shouted in my face) like I'm some kind of zoo animal.

I get that I stand out as a somewhat tall white guy travelling alone. I am more than happy to have a little convo over a translator app, or for people to practice their English with me. But the dehumanisation is genuinely starting to put me off doing some of these parks

@AaronBastani @LutfurRahmanTH This will be more or less entirely down to Canary Wharf, which frankly exists in spite of Tower Hamlets council and not because of it (private estate)

Learned today while speaking to @LutfurRahmanTH that Tower Hamlets (population 320k) has a larger GDP than Manchester (population 640k). London is just so enormous in the country’s economic and political life. I’m constantly surprised with facts like that. Even now!
