While my dad came to visit me, we had a week of superlatives (I think that's what its called)- we went to the Yangtze River Park (one of the longest rivers in the world- third I think); we saw the Three Gorges Dam- the largest hydroelectric power station in the world; we saw the most beautiful manmade scenery I have ever seen. An Emperor built a house for his mother called the Summer Palace. Everything is manmade; on the tour we were like "wow look at those mountains" and our tour guide responded "if you push it, it will fall down" and then we went to Beijing to see the Great Wall which required the longest train ride my dad and I had ever taken- to get there.
OK so I had tons of pics from Beijing and the Great Wall and all that BUT there is a virus on my flash drive so I will try to redeem them argghhh
Anyways, while in Beijing I went to the Pearl Market and one bad rumor led to upheaval. One sales lady told another that I was Jennifer Hudson; so she had people crowding around me, I'm like c'mon people apart from the fact that we are both black, do I really look like Jennifer Hudson? My students claim that I look like Raven Simone and Beyonce so...who knows- I disagree
