More stories to come

Well, now that I've been home for over a month (and I planed to update this blog so diligently while I was on holiday) it may well be time for me to publish some of my holiday stories. We had a lot of fun. I must say that we were very luck to be able to stay with Big Al's cousin and her husband, as both have been living in Shanghai for several years and both speak fluent Mandarin. I have posted some photos today and will endeavour to relate some of our adventures in the coming weeks. Here is a photo of me on the corner of a street in the French quarter not far from where we were staying.
