The traveling family


This trip was a reunion of three sisters


Three sisters and their families


The Great Wall and ten thousand visitors


It seems to go on forever


Guards in Tiananmen Square


Inside the Forbidden City


Elaborate traditional decoration


A "virtual" geocache


Mother, photographer, pack mule


Enforcing the "bicycle-only" lanes


All ranks have very elaborate uniforms


A wealth of manual labor


Traditional Chinese medicine, herbs


Playing Chinese chess on the sidewalk


A uniquely-Chinese pose


Seniors entertain each other at a park


Catching up on the news


Our two Mei Guo Ren girls at the Temple of Heaven


Sending a good luck prayer at the Llama Temple


Lunch with an old friend


Two signs, one can (the signs say "recyclable" and "other waste")


Uighur musicians from Xinjiang province


A friendly Buddhist monk


Expansive parks in Beijing


Sydney's favorite part of Shanghai, playing at John's house


Audrey's favorite part of Shanghai, the Pearl Tower


Gong Gong, the cheerful grandpa


Posh treatment at the hair salon


A silkworm cocoon and a tiny thread


Being treated like royalty (price: US$1)


Bumped to First Class


Noodle breakfast in Hong Kong


I think this has already been eaten!


Why isn't anyone else swinging?


A fashonable "metrosexual" in Hong Kong


A bustling shopping area


Hong Kong from the peak


The Peak trolley


Light show on Victoria Harbor


A missing geocache


Geocaching on Po Lam Summit


The view of Po Lam, Kim's neighborhood


So familiar, yet so foreign

Deep Thoughts (by Jack Handey)
Too bad you can't buy a voodoo globe
so that you could make the earth spin real fast and freak everybody out.
