EPD Trip to Beijing

If this is a bit disorganized, forgive me. Everything on my screen is in chinese characters. So, I am guessing which buttons to use to navigate. I'm happy just to have this. The three photo links are from Mark's company's trip to Beijing. One set is of the grand opening celebration of EPD's Yangzhou factory. The other two are of The Great Wall of China and The Forbidden City. They are amazing sights to see. However, the conditions were not the best for photos. There was very thick fog first thing, then cleared to bright sunshine. That would normally be excellent for pics. But, the smog was so unbelievably thick that you could not see the sun. It was very hard to make out anything in the distance. Still, very neat to see.

I have finally found another "back door" way around all the Chinese censorship. I'm really missing that whole freedom of speech thing. Seriously, I love my country and every day I spend away makes that sentiment stronger. Hope this works for a while so I can start posting.
