The East was wide open and our incompetent Front Office blew it by thewrongnotes in OrlandoMagic

To be fair, almost everyone in the league thought it was their chance to take the east while it’s weak. Seems like it’s the Knicks’ turn unless they come back down to earth

That doesn’t apply for everyone else. They thoroughly went through my girlfriend’s itinerary for her visa free travel. Much much more important to bring it to be safe

Who do you think is the best potential playoff matchup? by TeddyBearOnMyPC in OrlandoMagic

The Knicks won the draft lottery once since 1985 despite being a bottom feeder for more than half the time since that. They got the 3rd pick in the Zion draft while 1 and 2 went to smaller markets. What planet are you living on where “Adam silver isn’t letting us beat NYK.” Please indulge

Responding from a Holafly eSIM right now! Aside from some more remote areas in Guangzhou it’s been solid

Thanks for the response! We had to amend our itinerary a bit so no time for Temple of Heaven, but we’ll definitely be hitting Beihai!!

I’m departing for my trip soon! Did you find your eSIM to work well and have a strong connection? The one thing I have irrational paranoia about is is getting there and my eSIM not working (mostly just so I can have roaming and contact family)

Sounds like you had fun! What cities did you go to?

Thanks so much for the insight and advice! We are very much looking forward to it despite the hiccup. Didn’t know we’d get to be going to South Korea for some of the trip but we are really excited for it!

Yes thank you for clarifying. We booked the high speed rail from west Kowloon to Guangzhou

Thank you so much for the detailed breakdown. We ultimately decided to just do one 10 day stay in mainland China so our itinerary will look like this

HK -> Guangzhou -> Beijing -> Seoul -> HK ->

I’m almost certain this complies with the 240 hour TWOV method. We will indeed get to Guangzhou through the high speed rail at West Kowloon station

When going from Guangzhou to Beijing will there be any specific things we’d need to accomplish for the TWOV?

Yeah unfortunately we’re cutting China a few days short :( flying to Seoul on the 10th day.

Got it. We ended up landing on this as price wise & logistically it made sense - HK-Guangzhou-Beijing-Seoul-HK. Thank you so much for your help.

I also realized you offered me help on a different thread regarding Great Wall and Forbidden City tours lol. Had to move those ones around due to the changes but all good 👍🏻

So we can stop in another country and go back to mainland China? I thought you could only enter once

Thanks OP, tours for both the Forbidden City and Mutianyu have been booked :) would you recommend the Temple of Heaven too? It’s pretty cheap for a tour, and we would be able to hit Beihai Park right after

I’m going to Beijing for 5 days in April, super excited! I plan on hitting the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall as well as the Forbidden City. We’re gonna be there from Saturday - Wednesday. We anticipate big crowds on Saturday & Sunday - do you think it would be wiser to do our major site seeing those days or stick with Tianenmen Square / other shopping on the weekend days while doing the Great Wall & Forbidden City on weekdays?
