China was great! Ryan and I arrived safely home after 12 days full of exploring Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Macau. Here is a condensed list of what we accomplished while we were gone:
- Ate the most amazing Chinese food I've ever had
- Bought great souvenirs
- Went to awesome street markets
- Saw some crazy eats: scorpions, snakes and cicadas to name a few
- Went to the World Expo in Shanghai, amazing!
- Experienced the greatness of The Great Wall in Beijing
- Haggled and bargained for most everything we bought
- Saw The Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and Temple of Heaven
- Saw the preserved body of Mao
- Had the best tofu of my life, even Ryan loved it!
- Took a ferry over to Macau for the day
I love vacations. I'm so ready for retirement. Only about 40 more years, can't wait!
Your pictures are amazing. Seems like you had a wonderful time in China. So cool you and Ryan haggled, I'm so not good at that :D
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny, don't rush retirement, they say it's a killer. :D
