Ok, now I do have some news. For all you that know me, you better sit down.
Today, we went to lunch with the operations guys (one of them was the same guy that took us to lunch when Mr. Grouper came to the table). We went to a very nice hotel and they had an outstanding buffet. Fouad, one of our colleagues convinced me to try raw fish - said to mix it with wassabi and soy. I told him to get a few pieces and I would try it. Charna and I shared a plate. Believe it or not, it was not bad. Granted, right next to it on the buffet was a duck - head and all. it was on a rack, like you would see lamb on for gyros in the US. It had been deep fried of course, but it was the whole duck.
I still can't believe it did it. It blows my mind.
We are getting ready to head to China, our ride to the airport comes at 8AM. Have to head back to the hotel and pack - a little different than packing for my 1-2 night trips. As usual, I way overpacked. Oh well. God forbid should I want to wear something and not have it.
I am not sure of our Internet connectivity in China, so it could be a few days before I have a chance to update again. I hope everyone has a fantastic day! ~Nicole

I am not a big fan of raw fish. I had to eat some once with a client from Japan. It wasnt the taste that bothered me as much as the texture.

I am impressed! Now, if you can tolerate crab, you can certainly try cooked fish. Behind that pretty face staring through your water glass, there was probably some delicious mild white fish named Mr. Grouper. I had some in the Bahamas and it was delicious! Safe travels to you!!
