Shots from the Summer Palace, Beijing. Another giant park in Beijing that the Chinese are repainting and restoring for the Beijing Olympics. Everything looks nice, but I, as a history buff, prefer the theory of preventative restoration as opposed to this kind of restoring the buildings. But it makes for some beautiful shots.
More on this later.
For now, enjoy the pictures. I have two more weeks of teaching in China and then it will be time to make some decisions about where I will be going next. The intention of the latest trip to Beijing and Tianjin was meant to talk with Lili and see where we stood and where we wanted to go--but the usual complications are going to come into play--mostly money.
I will be talking a lot about this in the coming weeks, so no need to bore you with it now.
