Schmidt Family 5: Yesterday was a travel day
http://schmidtfamily5.blogspot.com/2015/06/yesterday-was-travel-day.html
Friday, June 26, 2015. Yesterday was a travel day. Nothing glorious happened here yesterday. We said goodbye to Guiping City, our driver and our guide, Phoebe. We got to the Guilin airport after a 5.5-6 hr drive. Zzzzzzzz mountains escorted us the entire way to Guilin. The last two hours were horrible as the roads were very bumpy and the van was so-so. We enjoyed KFC at the Guilin airport. It tastes awesome. We have enjoyed the Chinese food here, but we all agree it is time for Western food. Yesterday wa...

Thursday, June 18, 2015. Our day on Xian. Our day (Thursday) began. We said goodbye to the Metro Park Lido Hotel. We flew to Xi'an and left that airport at 11:00 and boarded our bus.

Schmidt Family 5: Panda Day!!
http://schmidtfamily5.blogspot.com/2015/06/panda-day.html
Saturday, June 20, 2015. The Internet is crazy here so these pictures are posting out of order and in odd places. Hopefully this will work. I always type as we go along in the bus and take down thoughts and what the local guide says. Cloudy here some today. It is always cloudy here with only 70 sunny days a year in Chengdu. 70! The sun came out at noon so we got to have some sun here, too. Maybe we were good luck! It is only about 70-75 degrees here today. Woohoo! We were supposed to go to the most famou...

Schmidt Family 5: Xi'an and Chengdu
http://schmidtfamily5.blogspot.com/2015/06/friday-morning-we-boarded-bus-at-8am.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. Girls playing hackey sack. Ancient city wall of Xi'an. We boarded the bus at 8am. And Susan greeted us and talked on the way to the Ancient City Wall of Xi'an. We climbed to the top of the wall. Susan said it would be a piece of cake compared to climbing the Great Wall of China. And it certainly was. This wall is the best preserved city wall in China. It is 9miles long. This weekend is the Dragon Boat Festival here. Traffic is a little heavier because of the holiday. The Ch...She i...

Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Travel day to GuiPing City, China. Thank you for following along and hanging in with me and all of my typo's, fragmented sentences and bad writing. Sometimes I feel as if I don't use my brain very often since I don't work full time. So this is me trying. Lol. I know Anna will appreciate the attempt someday. These chairs were hilarious. Black and sparkly. We met Phoebe, our new guide, at 10 am. We stopped at a gas station and I experienced the "squatty potty". Wowsa! Schmidt Chin...
