I recently traveled to the distant land of China to visited my folks with my college buddy Jenny Earnst. What an amazing trip! We went all over the nation by plains, trains, boats, bicycles, taxi's, subways, and buses!!! We first went northeast and stayed in Beijing and then went to southern China where it was very plush with tons of water and the craziest hills/columns you've have ever seen. I've never seen anything like it! From there we went to central and western China high up in the mountains. We stayed at 10,000ft and road horses up into the crazy huge mountain ranges that surrounded the high altitude valley. We then headed back to Beijing and climbed all over that Great Wall and explored the Emperors Palace and Gardens. We finally ended up in Baoding - where my folks teach. We had two concerts there and taught some classes for the University students.

Some highlight for me:
- Seeing my folks in their element
- A Chinese girl threw up on me at the Great Wall
- We spelunked in this cave that went back a mile and half...and towards the middle there was this amazing mud pit! You'll have to see the pictures!!!
- I ate incrediblly crazy things that I'll never eat again or talk about
- Riding bikes and almost dieing every minute of it
- Being on the river boating to the port towns
- CHING TOW everybody!!!
