5 trips to China in a year - I'm almost getting to like the place.

As usual I based myself in Beijing but also travelled to Guangzhou, Zhou Zhou, Tianjin, Tanggu, Dagang, Shandong - and, for the first time, to Shanghai - but forgot my camera!!

Ah well, there's always 2005.

The brown tint on the photos of the Great Wall is due to a sandstorm which had blown in from Mongolia - everything really did look that colour.

Most, but not all the pictures here are mine. Those taken with a Nikon E3100 were by Ian Williamson, and those taken with a Canon A10 were taken by Dave Moffat.
