Back in Beijing

Hello, Hola and Bonjour a todos y todas! As many of you know, we returned to Beijing two weeks ago after a month of backpacking through the South West of China. We went to Hainan Island, Guangxi province and Yunnan province. It was incredible!!! "Increiiiiiibleee!!!" dice Tono.

I started classes at the university last week and I have been really busy planning my lessons, but this weekend I was able to dedicate some time to editing and uploading some of the 5,000 pictures we took. Now I just have to choose the best ones to share... easy right? Ufffff... there are soooo many!!!

Don't worry, I am sure while I am supposed to be planning my US Cultural Survey and Business Correspondence course I can procrastinate long enough to put some more pictures up ;-)

Here are some highlights...
