Holy Moly, Caratheglobetrotter is going to China this summer! My company just approved allowing me and my coworker, Grace, to go on our Beijing, Xian, and Shanghai tour.
Check out our itinerary:
Tour Center - Beijing, Xian & Shanghai
To do list:
+ Decide if we're doing a stay behind (a few extra days in Shanghai sounds cool--there are some villages built on waterways like Venice that are day-trip accessible from Shanghai that we'd like to check out)
+ Get flights booked
+ Get passport picture taken for visa application
+ Get to work on getting the Visa processed (decide whether to use a visa handling agency or hire one of the company's tour directors based out of Mexico City to drop-off, pick-up, and mail our passports back to us)
+ Start reading up on Chinese history--already took a quick look and, man, that country's really old, better get crackin'!
+ Learn Chinese...who am I kidding?? not going to happen, but a phrase book is probably a good idea.
+ Count down...88 days and counting.
