Flashback Friday: Traveling in China

It seems like just yesterday that I met and fell in love with my husband. One of the things I love most about him is that Jon lived in China from the time he was 13 on until 18 when he returned for college. It is apart of who he is and I was so excited that I was able to visit his hometown before we got married. Here are some pictures of you trip to China four years ago in July 2006.


This is me at a restaurant in China eating REAL Chinese food!! It was so good!!


This is a close up of the Kung Pao Chicken. Do you see all the oil on that plate?


This is a fruit stand. We got Cantaloupe on a stick!


Jon and I hanging out with his friend Sam.


This is Jon and I after we made it onto the Great Wall of China. I had sprained my ankle just a few days before. I had to climb up the wall using crutches.

Visit Tia for more flashbacks.

What an awesome experience! I love to hear people actually making those type of experiences happen, they don't come a long often. It's my personal philosophy that even though major events like that aren't easy to get to, they should always be taken advantage of, they are so worth it!

Mrs. O - They are worth it! It was truly an experience of a lifetime.

Manzanita - The food was great! I needed a taste of the Chinese culture to be able to understand my husband just a little bit better.

What an amazing trip! I have no idea how the Chinese stay so skinny with all that yummy food!

Jen Newsham said...

Losing Brownies - They walk a lot! I also think they eat less processed food.
