The attack of the killer Mosquitsos


Similar model to the one in the room

When I arrived to my apartment last week, they had a bunch of stuff laid out in the room. Free shampoo, unbrella, drinks, etc. When looking further Ronald and I noticed a box that had a mosquito on it. We opened it up and it was some sort of device you plug into the wall that is suppossed to kill mosquitos.  Ehh, we both thought this is wierd and through the box back under the nightstand where we found it. We even asked a local guy who lived here if there were a lot of mosquitos and he said no. I get bites every now and then but not someone who typically worries about it when traveling. Well, if there aren't a lot of mosquitos in Guangzhou the few that are here must have found me. I got nailed yesterday as I have like 15 bites all over my feet and legs. Sexy huh? They itch so bad. Luckily last night I was able to find a Chinese drugstore that sold me some lotion that has helped the ithcing. Today has been better but I'm still covered in bites. I've been a mess the last two days because of it. The first thing I am doing when I get back to the media housing is plugging in the anti-mosquito thingny. Lets hope that thing does it's job.
