OUR AMAZING TRIP TO CHINA AND TIBET

Here are some pictures from our trip. We had such a wonderful time, and of course we have hundreds of pictures, so this is just a little sampling of the trip. We had a great group of people to go with, wonderful guide too. The food was really great, and the accomodations were very good. The pace was fast and eventful, one day we were at the Forbidden City, the next at the Great Wall, the next visting the Potola Palace where the Dalai Lama grew up, and before we knew it we were floating down the Yangzte River. I feel this is just the first of many wonderful trips to come.

China Trip

At the Great Wall with our fearless leader. This was a "wild" section of the wall that we climbed up to.

Even in this special section of the Great Wall, here is a lady selling chotchkas.

Beijing, Xian

The Summer Palace in Beijing. Here is one of their weird Lions. Every garden must have a statue, water, rocks.

We had a home visit with a family in the Hutong section, nice court yard.
