Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

Most of our trips up to this point had been relatively local, mostly within the U.S. or the nearby Caribbean. As we were about to celebrate our 50th anniversary, we decided to "go for it!" We booked a 21 day, all inclusive trip to China. It was truly a wonderful experience which made this anniversary the best we could ever have hoped for. While images such as the Yangtze, the Terracotta Warriors or Beijing Hutong are readily recalled, it is this one photograph which stands out as the contrast that exists between our cultures. This photograph was taken at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.
