China

It's been a few weeks since I've been back now, but I thought I'd post some pictures from my trip to China. In addition to spending the work weeks in Dongguan and Fuzhou, we were able to make it to both Shanghai and Beijing on the weekends. In Shanghai we walked around the city and did a tour to one of the water cities on one of the old canals an hour away, and in Beijing we were able to see the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, some of the Olympic venues (although not from too close-up and they were still all blocked off to the public), and the Great Wall, in addition to the serious pollution...

Since I've been back, we had our friend Josh from Norway and Katie from Seattle visit, and we took them to the Herzogenaurach Beerfest (the town where adidas is headquartered). Next weekend we are headed down to Italy, to Milan and down to the Italian Riviera south of Genoa, towards CInque Terre. Looking forward to the sun and the food!
