Well, my tickets are bought. I'm returning to China in December for another 3 weeks. It's my wife's dream to come home for Christmas, but since the chances of that happening are very slim, this will be the next best thing. I really should put it off until Spring Festival and our anniversary, but we've been apart too long already. By the time I arrive in China, it will be 7 months apart.
I want to do something special for her this time. I hope to travel somewhere. Her ears really perked up when I mentioned Hong Kong, but I'm also considering Yunnan as a possible choice. Winter isn't an ideal time to be a tourist in China, but southern China shouldn't be too cold (I hope). I thought for a short while about Guilin, but having spent time there with my former girlfriend, the magic would be tainted. Does anyone have any suggestions for possible alternatives?
