my feelings about CHINA

the FIRST IMPRESSION

Why is China so clean ?

The people have only a fraction of our Australian income per head and yet they are so careful about their country.

Is it their respect of law and order ?

What ever it is i would love to see some in Australia.

Maybe i was just blessed but i felt so safe in China - saw only one motor accident in 30 days of travel even though speed and congestion were commonplace

Had the pleasure of covering a vast distance by road boat train and plane - everything ran like clockwork.

The hotels were very comfortable - clean and well managed.

The food was beaut and for me easily recognised which was important for me.

Only experience i missed was a visit to a public toilet - the smell was horrendous but then part of life in such a big country with plenty of people and tourists everywhere.

My personal and private assessment is that the people of China are Australians in disguise.

they are a welcoming people with time to spare on visitors and i really loved every part of China

Have taken some time to let the thrill of the holiday pass away but you would not believe me if i was to tell you that a young Chinese gentleman and his family in Chongqing exchange emails with my family on a daily basis and we often chat on Skype.

more will follow because i am trying to talk my wife into another trip to Beijing Xian Kumling Guilin Chongqing and Shanghai .

She will not see what i saw but she will see enough to really appreciate CHINA.
