Now that is a dream trip. I understand what you mean. I have been known to follow a blog for a while just because they were moving to my childhood home town and I was excited to see familar places.

Thanks for sharing those beautiful pictures. It looks like an amazing trip!! I know what you mean about being jealous. I too take lots of 'dream' trips around Europe that others only dream of doing, but I'm more jealous when they talk about the country fair back in the states or a trip to Cracker Barrel! LOL! I guess it is a case of being Thankful for the wonderful things God gives us in our lives - where ever they are and what ever they are! Thanks for the reminder. :o) Hiya Jimmie!

And you have some wonderful pictures too! We had the Terracotta Warriors here in NZ early this year, but unfortunately we didn't get to see them. I do regret it! Wow!

The boys are dying to visit The Great Wall! I think it's even more special to see those historic sites since y'all appreciate and no SO much more than the average tourist. I thought the Summer Palace was gorgeous even in February when it was frozen over. .-= Marsha´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.othersuchhappenings.com/2009/10/operation-christmas-child.html" rel="nofollow">Operation Christmas Child</a> =-.

And I WILL admit, I AM a little envious!!! Especially since the last lapbook we did was on Ancient China, and your hanging out at places we've only read about!!! LOL. I love it though, and am happy that you & your family are getting to experience the grandeur. Awesome!! (But I must say, a trip to "Krispy Kreme" doughnuts, to see how they are made just doesn't compare to the Great Wall!!! LOL!!) Wow, those are great!! And I WILL admit, I AM a little envious!!!
