Well, the airplane is booked, and now it's time to start details/questions of the trip plan. Just a reminder: 2 new luggages , China Visa for 3, and what else? Basically we consider taking train instead of airplane unless no choice, since it's troublesome to go up and down . Also should we do group or self tour? Added 2 days later: To cities it's better to take train, but to national park as JZG and ZJJ, it's better to fly, saving time. And since there is no return for us, self tour is the only choice.

Last Saturday we had good family time. We got up until 10ish, it's called "Natural Wake up" (自然醒in Chinese:), then we went to a GuangDong* Restaurant for Dim Sun at South-Point as planed, good thing is Yue decided to join us, usually she likes stay home by herself. After Dim Sun, we went to bookstore nearby and Yue was showing around the books. Always amazed by so many great authors and artists. Out of all, we stayed longest to browse the works by Van Gogh and Da Vinci , two towering giants in the world of art. Vincent Van Gogh and Leonardo Da Vinci, one is from the late 19th century and one is a Renaissance figure. Whose works do you enjoy more? From http://www.prlog.org "In their approach to art, both of them are very linear. In order to grab images quickly, Da Vinci always takes his sketchbook with him. These sketches consists the basis for the undertaking of all of his great art works. One only has to look at he Adoration of the Magi or his Cartoon of

I am always wondering if I could book online by ourselves or ask agency. The key issue for we Chinese (care about money:() is that if agency could get better deal than youself search online or not. Even you could diligently do your own search, but a good agency with promo for sure is the best! We kind like our long-time agency, and let me know if you want the number! I will tell you my story about my effort for buying tickets. First I search myself, my iPhone, Nexus 7 are loaded with all the travel help apps, you name it and I have it. Among all, I use most is Tripadvisor, and I like the feature of emailing me the price dropping alert. I searched the price for Jul-Aug to Beijing, the lowest is around $1600.

You are doomed if you have a not so good agency, by no so good means they dont really ca
