Guest Eastern Turkistan is under China's occupation since bloody Moa time.
This Communist regime allows no freedom,We basically want to educate in our language,and not to be assimilated,
We will always seek our freedom with Tibet.
Regards to all who believes in human rights...

Ann June 1. The beds are so hard! I have a hard mattress at home to sleep on but the Chinese really sleep on hard beds! Kelley, our Shanghi tour guide, told me that the chinese have hard beds because they believe it is healthier for you. Amazing enough! I slept very comfortably. Jessica Cunningham was my roommate. It was interesting to find out that Jessica had lived in Susanville, Calif. around 1989 for a couple of years. She is now married to John Pappus who held the Lassen County Office as the Assistant Treasurer. It's a small world after all.... June 4. After a good restful sleep at the Shanghi Hotel. I went down to breakfast and the food was cold, coffee was cold and the breakfast sandwiches were cold, but the eggs were hot. Dining customs in China were definitly different than in the US. June 5 After a comfortable all night train ride - I slept real good in the cramped 4 bed quarters. Our roommates were: GG, Grace, Jessica and myself. We were all exhausted and slept all night, we did not talk much just slept. The train took us to Wuhan - and listening to the cadence of the train on the tracks, clip-clopping along, put me right to sleep. When we arrived at the train station in Wuhan was a nightmare. The train station is under construction. We had stairs to carry our luggage up and down. Matt, saw my stuggling plight and helped me carry some pieces. It was a long walk to to the tour bus. That walk was when it hit me that China is populated with millions and millions of people. Dodging people left and right sideways and backwards was a big realization for me! (So many people) Blue skies and sparkling stars was the first beautiful site I saw from the airplane window as we were climbing to 37,000 feet in the sky to bring all of us ChinaTrekers home on June 19, 2007. From June 1st our experiences in China will be remembered for the rest of our lives. As for myself, my first travel abroad leaves me in a state of finding out things about myself that I had not realized before and to make that discovery at this latter time in my life. I know now I will live the rest of my life as a fuller, and richer person.

Maggie (David's wife) Just wanted to thank you for all your journaling- it has been great to follow along. It sounds like it's been an interesting trip to say the least! And it will be interesting to see how China fares with it's attempt to "catch up"- I wonder if they won't pollute themselves (us) off the planet. There was an interesting article in this months National Geographic entitled "China's Boomtowns", mostly about a city named Lishui, south of Shanghai. They just razed miles of mountaintops and farmland to build industries and housing for displaced rural residents. Have a safe trip home- sounds like people are ready to return to the US. Cheers, Maggie

Guest Kristi Betts Hi, Jessica, Gail gave me your journal link and I decided to chedk into what you are doing. How exciting and impressive to see what you have been learning and where you have gone! It is a lot to absorb. Sounds like you have been paying attention. I especially appreciate hearing aboutthe park. I also see why you finished June 8 with,"Run, America, run!" Your Friend, Kristi

rstreeter@kc.rr.com Dave. Lana & I drove 3240 miles and saw Sally & Dave in Wilson. Beautiful country as always. She'd never seen the Tetons or Yellowstone. So I figured I'd throw in Devil's Tower & Mt Rushmore as well. Home now. Hope you're enjoying yourself. I'll keep watching your posts. Richard

Maggie, David's wife Rhetta, just wanted to let you know that Mary, David's sister, and I are enjoying your journal entries and admire your ability to post entries with the itinerary and facilities you seem to have at the moment. Also wanted to let you know that it did not freeze in Yreka, had a few days of cool weather with rain (and hail) but summer is making a concerted effort to reappear on the scene. Keep on snapping those pictures! Cheers, Maggie

Luna, Margo and Nora's Dog Matt, Hey dog breath! Perhaps this admission (eating dog) tells me why I was always nervous around you. Go ahead and munch away, pit bulls etc are really tasty. But I would advise you to stay away from labs and poodles. Luna P.S. We are sending lots of love and please keep the emails coming. Martin, Mary, Margo and Nora

KIMZ5053@sbcglobal.net What is the big idea if eating dog? I knew that Hundred Ways to Wok your Dog was a best seller, but Matt dog? It sounds like your having the time of your lives. America will probablylook much nicer than when you left. Julia Kimsey

Mary ( Dave's sister in MO) Between your good journaling and Dave's pictures this should be really interesting to follow your journey. I laughed at the picture Dave took of the different potato chips. I laughed because I told my husband that only Dave and I would take pictures of potato chips. Have fun!
