China! | Xian's Wholesale district |
We've come back from our tour of China. May was an excellent time to go. China is growing faster and faster and changing quickly. Instead of our usual independent trips, we opted to go with a tour -- China Spree (www.chinaspree.com) as the deals are simply too good to pass up. It was a leap of faith, as independent travellers we'd always shied away from organized tours, but this turned out wonderfully. I'll be building China pages, so keep tuned! |
|  | 35 days is a LOOOOONG Road Trip... ...spanning September and October 2006. Well, actually we only had the car for a month, but we took the opportunity to visit some places we'd yet to see in France as well as our first foray into Spain. I also discovered the Curse of the 1Gig Sandisk, as I came back with over 3000 photos. It has taken a long time to winnow them down for various sharing purposes, and I've only got pages on some of them....when I've now started to plan for a NEW trip!
Where we went: The Loire Valley Dordogne and the Lot St Jean de Luz (FR)
(on to Spain) Pamplona, San Sebastian, Vitoria, Laguardia, Leiketio, Bermeo and Bilbao
Tarragona and Zaragosa
Barcelona!
Collioure (back in FR) Cathar Castles Provence Le-Puy-en-Velay And a return to Paris (fourth time!) |
|  | Planning Place! This is where I plan our trips. Very convenient! |

|  | Durham Savoyards One of the joys of being retired and living in the Research Triangle is the opportunity to be involved in fabulous groups like this one. This Spring I'm involved with the most professional (although it is a non-profit volunteer community theater group) and extraordinary musical theater experience ever -- here is a link to a video from a dress rehearsal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLvMNiK4V-Y
I hope you enjoy it!
The picture is from the scene where Ralph (pronounced Rafe BTW) threatens to do himself in... If you'll view the video clip, you'll note that this show is staged in sort of a circus/cirque theme. (Not your usual Gilbert & Sullivan, for sure!) |
