Off to China

It's now 18 months since we got home from India via Dubai and we are off again next week. This time it's China on a 3 week package called "Magnificent China" with Wendy Wu Tours. We've not travelled with them before but they have a great reputation in Australia where they are based. We were with mostly Australians on our Vietnam trip in 2011 and it went well so we have no worries if that should happen again. 

We fly out of Edinburgh on Tuesday with KLM to Amsterdam, where we connect with a direct flight to Beijing, so once again no Heathrow - definitely a bonus! Three weeks later we fly back the same way but from Shanghai. In between - well we will try to tell you all about it as we go, hopefully with a few pictures as well. This will be the first time we have used a small netbook computer and hotel wi-fi connections instead of internet cafes, so it will be interesting to see how that works.
