Here is our latest visit to China. The adventure started from Shanghai, where we flew into Jiu Zhai Gou via Chengdu. Jiu Zhai Gou is located at the east of Tibet mountains. It is secluded to the national parks with 114 lakes and many waterfalls. We love the fresh air and scenic view it has to offer. Our trip continued to Chongqing where we started our 4 days cruise along the Yang Tze River. It was magnificance seeing the scenic view of the Gorges and admiring wonders of the great dam China built. We flew from YiChang to Beijing and spent 5 days there.The trip covers the famous Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Hutong, Panda Bear visit and also climbing the Great Wall of China. Xian was a old ancient city with enrich history of the past. There laid the first emperor of China's tomb.

Our one week visit to UAE was great. The only thing we need to cope was that Kevin had fever for 2 days and later the whole family got into a cough and cold situation. Poor mommy even loss her voice for a week. We stay at Auntie Noelle and Auntie Aparna's house in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. They have nice big houses. Anutie Dorcas even took us out to see Dubai. There are lots of developement happening there. The weather was extremely hot for us. It was 33c - 36c, something which we are not use to coming from a nice cold weather in Europe. We had a splendid time visiting the malls in Dubai and also see the famous 7 stars hotel like Atlantis which was opened recently in Sep 24 and also Emirates Hill in Abu Dhabi.
After one week there... it's time to come home. Thanks for hosting us... we had a memorable time there.
