One of the greatest regrets of my life is that I did not come to China 10 years earlier than I did.
Why is that?
Because now, at my age and health condition, I'm no longer comfortable travelling, and in the almost 18 years that I've been here I've seen and experienced only a fraction of what there is here to see and do in this magical land, and it would have given me another 10 years to be with the most amazing woman I've ever known, who treats me as if I were her emperor.
Wonderful photos the one of the ranger and antelope is priceless.
Yes, absolutely.
