The wise words of Lao Tsu

*This too will pass * When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be * When you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to * Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage

Back in Yichang...what a great holiday back home!


My 8 weeks holiday back home in Australia flew past very quickly and I find myself back in a steamy hot Yichang, settling back to the Chinese lifestyle. I haven't blogged because I haven't had time. My last 3 weeks back home were full of activity as I tried to show Nettie as much of my lifestyle as I could. We really had a great time and she fitted in so easily. Because her English is so great and she is so easy to get along with...it's easy to forget that she hadn't experienced the western lifestyle before and was seeing, tasting and experiencing many things for the first time in her life. We really had the most amazing time and not only myself but my family all feel very pleased to have her in our life. Between us we gathered hundreds of photos...these are just some of them.
