Hi James,

I am already back home from China but Mr. Chang is still traveling in Europe so I will give you my personal comments about our trip first. I am certain that he will send you his comments later as well.

In general the meals were good and we had enough beer and soda to drink. The best meal that we had was the Pecking Duck dinner. All the hotels were very nice and comfortable.

Lijiang river cruise from Guilin to Yangshuo goes thru spectacular scenery. It's a must do cruise. I saw graceful bamboo groves between spectacular limestone peaks, farmers tending rice paddies, and lumbering water buffaloes pulling carts or cooling off in the river. I was deeply attracted by the traditional life style in Yangtze River Delta.

All the guides had adequate knowledge of English to communicate with the group. They went out of their way to ensure that we had a great time and arranged many things outside of the planned agenda. Our drivers were also very careful and driving safely.

All in all we were satisfied with our trip and your arrangements. Our tour to Guilin is now our most memorable china travel experience to date. I would also like to mention that your services in preparing this trip were excellent.

Thank you,
Adnan Osmani,
