Tourist everywhere
I wonder which country could be the world's most tourist,
They are everywhere , they just walk into a picture you are trying to take, they push into the front of the queue's, they get under your feet.
They are everywhere who could it be , well for me it's the Chinese.
The tours we are seeing these few days ,it's a good job they are a little smaller so i can just raise my camera a little higher.

My kid went up in a microlight earlier today,and a paramotor,i have known the guy who took him up for a couple of years,he told me today he takes loads of Chinese for flights,i remember never seeing a Chinese tourist 25 years ago,now they are everywhere,they have the expendable income nowadays the last generation could only dream of,i was in a fantastic shop in paris maybe 2 years back?i mean a really high-class store where the likes of myself can only afford to window shop,they had several Chinese shopping assistants to take Chinese tour groups around.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

Yes I would say the Chinese are the largest group in numbers terms o tourists, even in Pattaya there are bus loads of them. Remember the pub that Dave Cameron took the Chinese president to for a plate of fish and chips and a pint of IPA, well the Chinese bought it and are looking to opening them up all over China.....

The real scary thing is that only 6%-7% of the mainland Chinese have a passport

We are in pattaya at the moment,its raining hard today but your right Chinese are everywhere,anyone know Bicester village in Oxfordshire?There are so many Chinese visit it last time I was there I heard Travelodge were opening a new hotel there specifically to tap into the Chinese market and teaching them some mandarin.I was in tanga outlets in Ontario last November,the place was swamped with Chinese,all buying,all spending cash freely.They love polo ralp lauren and burberry.

They are still slaves in a monstrous society.
I don't envy them one little bit.

The Chinese love shopping in the UK. Prada, LV etc. are cheaper, especially with the recent 20% devaluation Brexit effect at the moment. Then they queue up at the airport and claim the VAT back (another 20% saving). Yes, I've been to Bicester village many times, the Chinese sometimes outnumber the Europeans shopping.
