Default A True Story that happed in China

A True Story that happed in China.
Tony arrived at airport of Shanghai. He wanted to have a
one-day trip cause it's first time for him to visit China. He
contacted a local travel agency with cheaper price.
He was so excited during his waiting. He expected wonderful
scenery spots, delicious food, an excellent guide.
But during the trip you see what happened. Michel is a local
guide from the travel agency.
"Michel could you please speak more clearly and slowly. I
guess I understood what you mean. But not fully." Michel speaks
Chinglish what gives me hard-working to understand.
"Michel here is so crowded. No view to see but people,
thousands and thousands. Shall we change the schedule a little bit. Why
not put it to afternoon."
"I do my job only according to the schedule. Changing is
impossible." Michel answered.
"Tony You must be hurry."
"But I just arrived the Bund."
"We will go to Jade Buddha Temple next. It takes much time
from here."
"This is sightseeing in the bus?"
We arrived a tea shop. "Tony Please taste it."
"Michel we have to go. We still have many sites to see."
"We have much time." Michel protested.
"That's waste of time." But what can I do.
"Michel the dish of dinner is always same as lunch. Yak! Fried
chicken with peanuts, potato soup with egg."
"That's set menu."
"Changing is impossible, I know." Tony answered by himself.
This was an awful trip.

Tony could not figured it out. That's the service of
travel agency in the booming city Shanghai? He tried another travel
agency with higher price. It was recommended by a friend.
It's totally different from the former experience. Lily is a
local guide this time.
"Lily you like a English native-speaker. Your English is
excellent!"
"Thank you."
"Tony this morning the weather is not nice to have a good
view of Shanghai from Oriental Pearl TV tower. It will be clear in the
afternoon according to weather forecast. Let's enjoy Yu Garden
first."
"Tony don't be hurry. Take your time. If you like the Bund
very much, we can spend much time on it."
"Tony do you like sipping Chinese tea. We can cancel tea shop
from the schedule, if you don't really like."
"I don't need shopping. More time on sightseeing."
"Tony the dish of dinner is homemade style featured by pork
and fresh vegetable, which is different from that of lunch."
This time it was really a wonderful trip!
Which travel agency will you choose?
Please think it over.

Beside all that, who needs a tour guide in Shanghai?
A guidebook and taxi will do fine.
