May 2009 - Beijing China
I've been posting our trip to China (out of sequence) that have inspired me to look back at our trip to China. Our trip was before I started blogging our travels.

A fun spoof of Alan, our guide Sean and John.
I loved your reference to out of sequence as I do that all the time. . .jumping from one thing to another. Keeps the reader paying attention I always say! Your photos are great - as usual.
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely memories there Jackie. Having a guide is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat stadium seems somewhat more dramatic in less formal photography.
ReplyDeleteThat stadium is still impressive. Great memories, Jackie!
ReplyDeleteI love traveling in China...Isn't the bird's nest too cool?
ReplyDeleteI saw the bird's nest, but don't remember seeing much else. The temperatures were outrageously hot when I was in Beijing. I can remember trying to cool down, constantly!
