FINAL REFLECTIONS (Sydney)
On reflection I'm still not entirely sure I got the format right for this. The number of posts (around 105) seems too many for email - but I got lots of feedback last time saying people really liked the email because of its impact.
I hope you enjoyed reading this. I was fun to write - and fun to have the pen fly across the page and the words pour out.
China is a great place to visit and things there are changing very fast. My favourite city was definitely Lijiang - and I hope from the photos you can see why. The hilite of the trip? Buying food cooked in front of you on the street? Cheap DVDs? Staying in a hotel room with water running through it? Contemplating a pigs tail kebab?
Definitely have to give credit to Kathryn - without whom this trip would have been a lot more stressful, and less interesting. Definitely also thank Jo - who is an awesome travel partner. Finally I'm thanking God - who is perceptibly a lot more active there than you'd think.
