  • Orange County to Las Vegas in a Tesla Model 3

    If I were to drive a Tesla, I would have severe range anxiety. Luckily, Tesla’s Supercharger network is sufficient enough to cover most long distance driving.  In this post, I did a hypothetical trip from Orange County, California to Las Vegas, Nevada in a Model 3.  Obviously, I would be driving the longer range version of Model 3, which can cover up to 310 miles on a full charge.

    Good news for all you Vegas lovers out there.  As of a few months ago, the Palazzo and Venetian hotels are now pet friendly! The Palazzo is our preferred hotel in Las Vegas, since all rooms are suites.  With two queen beds and an L-shaped sofa, six people can sleep in one room easily.

  • My trip to China

    npc_tn2Here’s the my dinner at the Incheon Int’l Airport in South Korea.  On my plate is fried pork cutlet with dipping sauce and a side of cole slaw.  There is a bowl of a spicy Miso soup and a bowl of steamed white rice.  There is also some of standard spicy side dishes like Kimchi potatoes and slices of pickled ginger.  Jealous, Teddy?

  • A cold, snowy day in Chi … err … Suzhou

    It doesn’t snow in Suzhou, does it? Apparently on a few rare occassions, it does. As of this writing, on January 26, it is around 27 F and it is snowing in Suzhou, China. My current world travels have me “stuck” in this city. I’ve been in Suzhou since January 16. Actually, I’m on the first leg of an Asian business trip that will take me to Singapore and then Japan. I’m sure when I’m in Singapore, it will be about 98 F and humid. Then, I’ll go to Tokyo, Japan, where it will probably be cold, snowy and/or rainy.
