China!

Here are some pictures from China!


This is me in front of the Temple of Heaven!!
During my cruise on the Yangtze River, we stopped and toured one of the largest dams in the world. This book explains the Dam project of the Yangtze River.
On the Yangtze River....

Of course my favorite part of the entire trip... The Great Wall of China. It was incredible.

My favorite city was Shanghai because every street looked like this!!

If you have been watching the Beijing 2008 Olympics, you may have seen the Forbidden City.

In Chinese culture lions are lucky. In front of many buildings there were two lions, one female and one male. This is the male lion in front of our hotel in Beijing.
