Memories
Today is Charlene's birthday. It struck me as unusual...until I remembered that exactly one year ago, we celebrated her birthday in a small hotel in Xi'an China.
One year.
It all flew by so quickly. Siying, Alan, Terry, Char and I. People who had no contact prior to GIP at all, banded together and had a hell of a trip from Shanghai to Beijing to Xi'an. There were ups (Sights and nice people) and downs (We missed our train!) but all in all, it was a good trip. The feeling that there was nothing to depend upon but the bags on our back is truly...memorable.
GIP will always be a part of my life.
My 10-day holiday tour was the pinnacle of GIP.
One year on...Char has graduated, the rest of us are slogging through recess week. This is depressing...
But photos cheer me up!
