Better late than never

Its taken about a month to get back into the swing of things, but here are some pictures as promised.


Standing on the city wall of Xi'an on my first day in China, in the background is the central bell tower.


Strings of kites flown over Xi'an


Dumpling dinner entertainment, which was beautifully preformed.


Chiang-Kai-shek's residence at the Xi'an Hot Springs, where he was forced by his own men to join Mao Zedung to fight the Imperial Japanese during WWII.


Being welcomed to the village school.


Tiananmen Square

Unfortunately Blogger seems to be having a hard time loading more pictures. I'll try to post pictures from the second part of the trip a bit later.
