China Adventures May 31 - June 2

So the trip to China was not short. I should also add that the in-flight entertainment was down, so that makes a long flight so much longer. After about 27 hours of travel and what felt like 500 checkpoints from Hong Kong to Shenzhen, we arrived at the hotel.

Our first full day in China (June 2) was touring the area, learning about the local shopping (where to bargin, backroom "warehouses", knockoff grades, etc), a tour of a silk factory, jade shop, local mall and touring two amusement parks - Splendid of China and China Folklore Villiage.
