[quote=PETERSEAFORD,273657]thanks everybody - thanks for this wonderful site - it has enabled me to learn a lot about China and i can hardly wait to enjoy her myself. i have meet some wonderful persons on this site - they have spent time to assist me and that is really wonderful . Thanks to all - i am meeting some of you when i am in your fantastic country and to this end i have really studied Mandarin and worn my friendship down with our local milk bar owner whom comes from Shanghai. we greet each other each morning in Mandarin and my limited vocabulary has grown a little so now i really want to try it out . it is amazing to me that although our cultures are so diverse we are all so much alike. For you Ellese it is a shame that the Great Wall has stopped the Easter Bunny - you would have found much joy in our Easter festival - here in Australia we really enjoy our Chinese Festivals - as a matter of fact in Bendigo we have one of the largest dragons in the world. i will continue to enjoy this site when i return from China as i already planning a return visit and i will tell you why. my wife Norma reads a great deal and she was certain that she would not enjoy a visit to China. lucky for me - her best girlfriend - thought the same as me - wanted to visit your country and as she is a widow is sharing accommodation with me. Both Fay and i have put in many hours of research for this trip and now my wife realises that China is a place not to be missed. she enjoys the chatter on this and other sites and has even asked me to invite a young man and his wife from X'ian when visiting Australia to spend the better part of their stay in our home so that we would have the pleasure of showing them our state of Victoria. - language is not really a problem but many use it as an excuse i think. the people who take the time to understand my questions and answer me are fantastic and the sages like May would be great company if only they would allow me to repay their generosity. thanks for all your help Frank and all the others that i have not mentioned but they know just what i mean. thanks one and all --- i love you all regards peter[/quote]
