China in conclusion

Some last minute shopping, my last Chinese meal and thankfully my last hotel breakfast and I will be on my way home. I must admit to being a little bit home sick, more for the company and quietness than anything.

Did I enjoy my Chinese adventure? Definitely!

Would I recommend it to others? Absolutely!

I have ticked a couple of things off my bucket list and got to make a childhood dream a reality. The best thing was that I got to see and experience it all first hand and now will know what's good and what's not. 

My biggest recommendation will be hotel location - it may cost a little more to be in the centre but worthwhile when the cab drivers speak absolutely no English and traffic that would make the best New Zealand driver have a heart attack can become an adventure all by itself.

Highlights - great wall and the terracotta warriors WOW moments

Low lights - the Beijing zoo
