Road Trip to Asia
The Hutong or back neighborhood of Beijing
only blocks from my hotel
More of the Great Wall
Isn't it great?
The Great Wall and some fresh air
I am trying out a new hairstyle
Forbidden City, Emperor's Palace
It's all about me
250 ft solid slab of carved rock, Forbidden City, Beijing
Transported over 200 miles by shoving along ice created road
YuYuan Gardens, Shanghai
16th century garden, but its not pea soup

Unique mountains
Crad, Phoebe, and Bruce
Flower power has arrived in China
Okay I will pose for a picture
How about another one of these oversized dried out like grapefruit things?
I look good
but I am going in the wrong direction?
That's me with Tom,Charley, Joey, and Fred
I get the sneaky feeling China is giving me the finger
On the Star Ferry going to Hong Kong Island
Do they really need an ad that big?

looking out
In my room
I could actually see the beach pretty good
Man's best friend until
I thought you knew where you were going
What did you say your name was?

What's going on?
Everytime we want to go somewhere they start eating and doing laundry
Right around the corner from the red light district
Helps to tone down the spitting and swearing
Mall of Asia
It may no longer be the biggest in Asia but it will still be the loudest mall in Asia
Try to see the bullet holes
Some people just don't have respect for church property
On a clear day..
You can't see the city? You just got to use your imagination.
Freedom of Man
I can do anything I want because I don't live here

The sun is going down as fast as the beer I am drinking
At Sonja's Garden
I am so full
Pretty, pretty lush
I get older with each picture taken
the path along the ridge of the volcano
Watch out for the wind!
volcano part 3
you could take a boat across the lake within the volcano until 2 years ago

Going up the volcano

I like the symmetry
