Note to fans: Substack, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are all heavily shadowbanning me, suppressing content, numbers, participation, sign-ups, registrations, etc. My original idea was to do these short posts on Facebook, but given the evidence, I’m going to start over here on China Rising Radio Sinoland – touch wood – which seems to have evaded Google’s algorithms until now.

ADVENTURES IN ASIA WITH LADYB AND GONGGONG
I look forward to bringing educational and fun experiences in Asia to my granddaughter Mila, who lives in Oklahoma, USA. She can learn about the world through all my adventures. I got a flat stuffed toy to join me. She is reversible. One side is a little girl and the other is a ladybug. I call her LadyB. I sent the same toy to Mila, which she can name as she sees fit. My Chinese name is Gonggong (公公), which means grandfather in Chinese.
I posted the first 15 on Facebook and got so many complaints from fans who hate or don’t use it, so I decided to start posting them on China Rising Radio Sinoland. Catching up with #1 here, which I found in Drafts.
LIFTOFF!
Story #1: leaving on a jet plane. Sesame Street’s Big Bird versus our B-I-G BIRD!
22 October 2024, Paris, France.
LadyB and I arrived to CDG Airport this morning in Paris, Maflor’s (Mila’s grandmother) hometown.
We had one last French breakfast before going to China. I shared my baby baguette with LadyB. Of course, with LOTS of yummy Norman butter and raspberry preserves, with a cappuccino coffee.
Then we went to the gate. Sesame Street has Big Bird, but ours is HUGE! This monster seats over 400 people.
