Richard and Linda's Trip to China

On January 2, 2001, we left NYC headed for Hong Kong, so Richard could accompany Soprano Jane Chu in a recital at Hong Kong City Hall Theatre. Even though we love to travel, we never thought we would go to China, so the opportunity to see this great country was one we couldn't pass up. Here are the pictures and some details about the wonderful places we visited. The pages contain a lot of photos, making the loading time a little long, but I couldn't leave any out. I think the pictures look better when I increase the brightness of my monitor; you might want to try it also.

The information I've included about China was compiled from our tour guides, several books and web sites. If any of the information is wrong, please e-mail me to let me know, and if you would like information about travel in China, send an e-mail and I can fill you in on how we planned our trip. Hope you enjoy the pictures! -- Linda
