The fast-paced bustle of a Beijing flea market ...

The history...


The energy and spiritual faces of China ...

Ne hao!

I'm back on track ...

Though my soul is still out there - in China -'tis slowly catching-up with me ...

In the next few days I will share with you the different shades of China that I have experienced and embraced during the past 5 weeks -- July to mid August 2006.

For you to truly soak everything in, you must sit back, relax and enjoy some of the following scenes that I'm about to unveil in a land of diversity, architectural history, culture and traditional setting:

-- the energy and spiritual faces of China ...
-- the fast- paced bustle of a Beijing flea market ...
-- the serenety of the Three Gorges on the Yangtze River ...
-- the sureal landscape of the Three Gorges and other areas while I was in transit ...
-- the terra-cotta warriors in Xi'an at its best ...
-- people at play ...
-- the general lifestyle of these wonderful optimistic people ....
