Wow, so pretty! I doubt I will ever be in China, but I enjoy seeing the pictures. During the Olympics I enjoyed seeing the surrounding areas they were filming. There were more trees than for some reason I expected. Very nice.

The food info in an earlier post was also very interesting.

Well I was just doing some journal surfing, so I will say bye for now and head on.
