Tiananmen square





Our Group in Tiananmen Square, along with a photo of the Male Lion with the very famous image of Chairman Mao in the background.

These were guards in the square that allowed me to photograph them. They are only allowed to be photographed while off duty. I was told while in the square that if there were any protests I was not allowed to take pictures, my camera would be taken without hesitation.

I know I know.....

It has taken me forever to get pictures up on the site from our trip.
Finally right?

We are Ready!


We are all packed and ready to leave.

We will be 13 hours ahead in the same day.

We are in Beijing first, then Chengdu which is the capital of Sichuan province. Here is a map so you can get an idea of where we will be.
