It is no surprise to me that so many of our favorites are of the Chinese People. During our stay and travels, almost without exception, the People of China have been overwhelmingly eager to meet us and have showed us such patience, generosity, and hospitality that it is difficult to describe. We have been welcomed into their homes, religious temples, weddings & ceremonies with open arms as their distinguished guests. We have appreciated their kindness very much and it has been our great honor to meet them.
