Hello Sophie,

We had a great time in China. There is so much of your culture that is so interesting to me. Since we have been back, I have been so busy with school and working.

For my arm, it will be a long process. I started physical therapy this week and can not lift anything for about 3 months. My job actually let me go ahead and start even though I can't do what I was hired to do. I am just doing desk work.

Anyway everyone was great!
Gerry An was awesome and gave us lots of information about the Chinese culture.
Lilly was just great. We would have been lost without her. She caught me once from falling down the stairs and, her help during my visits to the hospital was amazing. On top of everything, she even took pictures for me after I hurt my arm.
We really enjoyed Johnny. He was very sincere in his talking and was just awesome. He has such a sense of humor. Out of all our tour guides, he was one that got us started early and did things until later in the evening. We got done with things early one afternoon so we just sat in a part of town, had coffee and enjoyed being a part of the community.
Tony was good also. He wore us put with all the hiking however, the crowds were ridiculous.
A special thanks to our drivers. They were all so good. But, have to say that the driver with lily was the greatest. Getting me to the hospital so late at night was so kind and unexpected. Above and beyond his expected duties.

The only thing we did not like was that we started most days later than we liked. We tend to get up early and, like to go see things when we r on vacation.... And, the food in the rural areas with lily and tony were not good at all! It was really bad. If I were you guys, I would look for different places to eat in those areas.

I will forward some pics as soon as I get time:)

Take care
Jodi and Walter
