It's the China Countdown

Some of you may or may not know... Tom and I are going to China!

We leave in exactly one month, on October 13.


We are touring through Air Canada Vacations on the Charms of China tour.  We begin in Beijing where we'll see the Great Wall of China, the Ming Tombs, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Hongqiao Pearl Market and a tour of the Summer Palace.

Next we fly to Xi'an to see the terracotta warriors and check out the Muslim Quarter.

Then we fly to Guilin where we will get our first glimpse of karst topography, as well as terraced rice fields and a cruise down the Li River.

Our tour ends in Shanghai with the Jade Buddha Temple, the Yuyuan Garden and the Bund district.

Tom and I also added three days in Hong Kong at the end of our trip, for a total of 15 days overseas.

I don't see how it can be anything other than amazing.
