Sorry to get in here late, but this has SCAM written all over it. Read this forum, and see how many past members have almost gone to China, only to have a serious illness in her family prevent her from meeting the guy. Either Chinese women have really bad luck with family illness when they date a westerner, or, it's a scam. Look around this site for yourself...you will see what I am talking about.
That river shot could be the Bow River in Banff...but it could by anywhere else too. Hard to say. Get away from chnlove. Run, and don't look back. Roberts site is a great way to go, and don't forget that there are other asian countries that have less of a language and cultural barrier. I say this, as I am sitting in the southern Philippines right now, with my wife.
