Ten years ago, this week, we returned from an unforgettable trip to mainland China. It was amazing. It was cold. It was the Chinese New Year.
Here are of few pics I took.
Enjoy!

Wow, Cate! This looks like a grand trip!
It was really good and really different.
love the photos and the smiling people in them!
Thanks:D
Amazing pictures!
Thank you so much. 🙂
It had to be a very memorable trip, so I will put you on the spot … what is the one, most memorable moment of the trip … just one!
Climbing the Great Wall. I MEAN CLIMB! Our son booked it and it wasn’t the normal “tourist” trip. We were in the middle of nowhere (so it seemed) and the steps were – well, not consistent – and we lived at sea level and as you can see, there were mountains. Our lungs were in agony and we walked about 6 miles. But so glad we did it – next time…. the tourist area. 😀
Perfect answer because I just read your post about that day. I was exhausted!
Hahahaha! We were too!
But much more so than me.
My trip to that area was 11 years ago! In May. It was that trip with visits to other places in Asia that ultimately led to my 6 years here. 🙂 Nice to be reminded of that time.
That’s awesome Deb! Was a nice event that was for you.
Love these pics Cate!! Made me miss China! Our daughter-in-law and the 3 grand girls are there right now celebrating with her parents. Reading the comments too– sounds like you had an exciting trip!!
It was pretty amazing. 🙂
