I have just got back today from my latest 3 week trip around China. Plenty of new experiences for me and wonderful places to see. Photos on my website as soon as I can.

Sadly the earthquake overshadowed my trip and really put things into perspective, my heart goes out to all those affected.

Where have you been? Of course we didn't miss you!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Too much has been happening here.

Very tragic but at the same time inspirational as we see people all over China responding with such generosity and support

No marriage, met some new friends so plenty of emailing coming up.

I flew into HK, went to Foshan to see old friends, Zhaoqing, Kaiping, Yangshuo, Guilin, Ping'an and Fenghuang. Loads and loads of rain, tons of new experiences ( how many of you can say you fell into the terraced rice fields?) got bitten by every mosquito in China, tried plenty of new food.

My best bit, seeing Fenghuang early morning with mist. It was awesome.

Hi Dave, good to know you are back and no doubt on the hunt for that new job!

Anyway good luck with the search mate.

No Dave, but good to see u again. I see u have been to Zhaoqing and Yangmei... good choices.

I know very few words of Chinese but Fenghuang, is one of them (yeah, weird). In English it is the Phoenix, the mythical bird that was born out of the ashes (of something or other... hey you got search engines, look it up for yourselves :) :) :) )
