From Tai Shan to the awful city of Xuzhou, where Confucious was born. There was so much pollution here that the air was orange and the buildings were stained a rust color. Lots of deformed people with a variety of mental issues. This is the only place where we were not welcome as foreigners. My ex-wife punched some guy in the face and a crowd tried to take our bags away.
