Jason+Joanna Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 I am visiting my SO in October 15 - October 24. I am flying into Hong Kong on the 14th, and crossing the border via bus. On the 16th we are going to Beijing on a tour. We will see the Forbidden City, the Great wall, and more (it is a five day tour). After that is finish, we return to Shenzhen for a day or two and then I leave for the US again. I hope to take many photos, and post a few on the gallery here. I am starting to wish the day was already here, but I must wait more then 2 weeks still. Is there anyone else here that is going at the same time? Link to comment
turtle Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Our timetable is very close. I am flying to HK on the 16th, planning to take the boat from the airport to Shenzhen, then going for our interview on the 20th. It's my 7th trip to China, but my first time south of the Chang Jiang. Yes, it's hard to wait these last few weeks! Link to comment
Jason+Joanna Posted September 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 ... then going for our interview on the 20th.Turtle -- I wish you all the best for the interview. Looks like our travel plans are very similar. I saw that you are flying Cathy Pacific in another post. I am also going via Cathy Pacific from San Francisco (I fly up to S.F. from LAX on American Airlines ). By time I am done with the visa process, I think I will have visited China at least 7 times...

turtle Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 By time I am done with the visa process, I think I will have visited China at least 7 times...Well, I hope the process can speed up a bit. It's just getting crazy. The sad thing is that I've only been to China once since starting this process, and that was way back in January... I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time in China the past few years working and going to school, but once I started my job last summer, the vacation time and trips to China pretty much dried up. Now I'm kicking myself that we didn't start the k1 process earlier! Link to comment

oregonknl Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 John, If you make it to Xi'an, try to stay INSIDE the wall... This is one of the last walled cities of the world, and when I visited in 1999, I was very sorry that I didn't stay inside, where the night life, and street scene is very rich.. Link to comment
