Dear Gina,

So nice to here from you and get the pictures.  We had a wonderful time.  The hotel was excellent, great food and location.  Alex was an excellent guide and we had a lot of fun with him, as you can tell by the pictures. 

We packed a lot into a few days.  The only thing we did not get to do was the History Museum.  We just had too many other things to do.  The Horticulture Expo was beautiful and we really enjoyed riding bicycles around the Expo.  The main exhibits had several hours wait for each so we did not get to see them, but that is okay.  We do not like to wait in long lines and we had more fun on the bicycles.
  
Hua Shan was also a different experience for us.  There was a 2 hour wait to get on the cable car and there were 1000's of people on the mountain, but we are glad we climbed it.  The views were magnificent.  We would do it again, but maybe at a time of year when there are less people, maybe in the fall.  
   
We liked riding bicycles on the City Wall.  It was a great trip.  Thank you for making such excellent arrangements.
