Journey To The West
Journey To The West

Among the souvenirs Winnie brought back from China on her recent trip was an 11-disk set of DVDs containing the Chinese classic series “Journey to the West.”  Now, as part of our evening routine whenever Winnie and I are both home, we watch one or two episodes.  Although it’s only in the Chinese national language (no subtitles) I am able to mostly follow the action with Winnie’s help explaining the dialog.  Watching these series has becoming a lot of fun.

My writing has been light lately, and there’s actually a good reason for this; a better reason that just not feeling like writing. I finally finished rebuilding my boat “Sea Dreams” enough that I could get her back in the water, and that event has pretty much taken first priority.

Winnie returned home in Virginia from her month long visit to China Sunday morning.  She reports she had a nice visit traveling around different family in different towns around south-eastern China.  However, her flying experience coming back to the U.S. left something to be desired.
