See Maps of China link

Due to popular demand (OK, request by one sister), I have added a link with cool satellite maps to China.  My next trip will be to QingDao north of Beijing.  It is famous for its beer, which Jeff informs me was started by Germans?  I have to research and get back to you.  Please see map if you want to learn more about this HUGE country!

Hope you are all well.  

Formula 1 Racing at the China Grand Prix

Jeff, Jin , and Mr. Zhu had a great time at the Chinese Grand Prix on October 19th. Formula 1 is very popular in Asia and Europe. After a very interesting cross-cultural experience involving Mr. Zhu's attempts to get us into the race, we decided to buy tickets at the gate. Our seats were near the track's hair pin turn, s we got to see the cars slow down from top speed and then accelerate out of the turn. The noise was incredible. Lew Hamilton from the McLaren-Mercedes team won the race. Jin liked the Ferrari team the best, so he bought a Ferrari hat as a souvenir. We might check out the motorcycle GP in May at the same track.
