SandwichesShouldNeverTasteLikeCowCrap.jpegSandwiches Should NEVER Taste Like Cow Crap by Dave Lowe (published by Manta Press in 2008) is a tasty stew of stories from life on the Lowe Road.

Starting with strip searches at foreign customs, run-ins with tatami dragon ladies, rides aboard horny camels, shots fired by AK-47's, wheels breaking off taxis and more than a flightmare or two - Dave's travelogue poses a question: Are his size 13 shoes spreading mayhem and chaos with each step?

Only the Travel Gods know for sure.....

Dave Lowe's blog, The Lowe Road covers what's happening in travel, from zero to seven to star, hovels to hotels, donkeycarts to airlines and anything else useful that may come in handy for that future luxury resort vacation in North Korea.

72 Hours In Beijing (Behind the Great Firewall of China) 

In other visa news, China will now allow nationals from 45 countries 72 hour visa free access to Beijing. The scheme is only valid for visitors with onward tickets to third countries, and not round trips. 

Shanghai has had a similar (though shorter, at 48 hours) policy allowing travelers to stay in the financial capital.

If you are able to take advantage of this policy, don't you dare leave Beijing - officials say those who leave the capital will 'face punishment' though the exact details were unclear. 

(This post likely won't be visible to readers in China anyway - The Lowe Road has been banned by the Great FireWall of China for at least three years.)
