Drives to work - Zhuhai, China

We have a 30 minute drive to work every day and we get the same driver every time. Work is in a free trade zone and when we pass the customs post, the guards always salute us. It makes me feel important. Our driver doesn't speak english but we get by with over-the-top facial expressions and gestures. He is a nice guy and we invited him in to see some of the stuff that we work on. He was really happy and got really excited. He pointed to some buildings on our drive home the other day and said "maccau". So apparently we are really close the the city/country/island of Maccau. Too bad I don't have a multiple entry visa. I guess it is the Las Vegas of China. That would have been the perfect place to spend chinese new years.
