China? Part II

[theyellowhobbit]

How do you say "Could you read megillah for me, because I missed it and was at the great wall of China?" in Chinese?

I can do the Saturday night megillah just fine. Worst comes to worst I miss a megillah reading. I could read it for myself or something...

The flight there gets in on Friday afternoon. So I would fly early, and get to the Hotel on Thursday.

The flight home is Sunday, 6pm. No problem at all.

So really there's just Suzhou to Shanghai. (gah, it only links to their index. Click on "Asia" then "2007 trips" and then "classic China" and you'll see what I'm doing.) Maybe plus_c you could be on call and I'll make a very long distance phone call in case I get horribly lost...does that sound good to you?

It's a race, it's the Amazing Race...Ok, only one person would get that reference, because I had to remember that there aren't actual lyrics in The Amazing Race's theme song.

But it totally is an Amazing Race. Do I get to meet Phil?

I can be on call, but I'm wondering what you would need me for...

You signed off AIM for some reason - here's what I suggest:
* Ask your tour guide about scheduling, and see what they say, and at worst case to have them help you arrange transportation to Shanghai. Your tour company should be much more useful than I will be.
* If they won't help you, I assume that you'll be staying at 4-star and above establishments that will be used to hosting foreigners. If that's the case, the concierge at the hotel should be able to help you.

请问，因为您们渎Megillah的时候我在跑长城，请您现在再给我读Megillah吧。

Transliterated, that's: Qingwen, yinwei ninmen du Megillah deshihou wo zai pao Changcheng, qing nin xianzai zai gei wo du Megillah ba.

From what I understand, Megillah needs to be read from a scroll. Maybe you can find a nice person who'll lend you theirs?
