I decorated my table in honor of Chinese New Year.
And thought I'd share a few of my favorite pictures from our 2008 trip to China.
The Great Wall of China
Love on the Yangtze
Panda at the zoo in Chongqing
Rickshaw ride on the city wall at Xian
With Jan and Janice by the Pagoda at Shibaozhai
Cute little salesman guy at the Three Gorges Dam Museum. I bought two of his dragons and was later told they are made out of cigarette papers! Oh well, they are cute. You can see them on my table in the first picture.
This enterprising fellow was walking around our hotel in the morning. I asked (in sign language of course) if I could take his picture with his "future lunch" and he rubbed his fingers together in the universal sign of "Sure just give me some money first." So I gave him a dollar and took his picture. My sister-in-law Katherine was with me and wanted to take his picture too....guess what! Two pictures meant two dollars.

Wonderful memories!
