China!

Steve and I went to China September 16-23, 2011. Steve has been to China two times already and was going again for some more work at the factory in Quindgo China. This time we were able to save enough for another ticket. The people were so nice and ready to take me or give me anything I wanted. They love blonde, blue eye american girls. I've never consumed so much food in my life! Even though it was work we still had a lot of fun and I sure got my feel of Chinease culture. I was lots of fun!

Everybody was my size so I fit right in and Steve was the tallest guy arond. But I was till able to bargin and get things for really cheap (that's the advantage of being an American in China).
