As promised I will begin posting pictures of my trip to China. These posts will mostly be pics with just a little narration.
To set this up, my wife and I were in China about 20 years ago. China has gone from a third world country to a world power, although they still consider themselves a "developing" country. Bottom line is that China is nothing like I remembered it.
We arrived in Shanghai and I was immediately taken back by all of the construction. Following are some of the pictures I took from around our hotel, the Shangra La, and the views from our window.
This trip was completely through Viking River Cruises, which included all air, meals, hotels (all 5 star) transfers and excursions.
This was just the beginning of the most amazing trip I have taken yet.
Please see my China Index for more pictures of my China trip
I have many more China posts to come.
