Last Week in China - 2

Here are some more photos of the last week Kathy and I spent in China. The first photos are of our time with our friends Shakira and Wang Feng in Shan Yin, the hometown of Shakira.

Shakira and Wang Feng's "second wedding" for Shakira's hometown


Kathy and I took a train from Shan Yin to Hohhot. You can get a look at how the countryside looks. It reminded Kathy and I of Montana or Idaho in many parts. As we neared Hohhot, which is north of Shan Yin and Beijing, the landscape got dryer.

Factories looming in the distance...


Train loads of coal...




Here are some photos in and around Hohhot.

There is an incredible amount of construction going on...



One of the largest milk products plant in China is outside Hohhot


We took a prop plane home. Cool views after takeoff from Hohhot
