We started bright and early by stopping at a jade factory. It was beautiful and incredible what they can make from Jade. When we left the rain started to come down and we took a detour to the Ming Tombs. Then we stopped for lunch at a cloisonne factory that had everything and anything a tourist may want to buy. I did very well at keeping my RMB’s in my pocket. The cloisonne is beautiful and a symbol of Beijing. Boy would I love to bring this vase home. Then it was off to the Great Wall of China rain and all.

Hi Paulette.. I'm back from my trip and catching up. I imagine you are probably on your way to Guangzhou right now. I can't believe you'll have your sweet Annalise in just 24 hours or so. I'm glad your trip so far has been an amazing one. You really have a lot of cool pics etc for Annalise's scrapbook.
Thinking of and praying for you all..
Robin
Things look magical with the rain and I am glad you can still enjoy everything. Think how the world will soon be changing for you and Annalise!
