At Little Three and Xinhua's House in ShenZhen, eating snakes... Nanqi You

We flew into Hong Kong very early on March 10th. My brother-in-law Xinhua picked us up and started our 10 day whirlwind visit in China.

Mar 10-12: Shenzhen visiting my little sister (Little Three - yes that is her name) and her husband Xinhua who celebrated his 49th birthday (details in the post "XinHua's Birthday Celebration). They just became empty nested a few months ago when their daughter went to college in the US. We ate ourselves silly.
Mar 12 - 13: we were in YiWu, 2 hours flight from ShenZhen. This is where I imported my jewelry kits into a jewelry club a few years ago. Jacky, my contact and liaison, has since gotten married and has 2 children. We were there to visit Jacky and his family while we checked out some potential products for imports. We were overwhelmed just like last time, but opportunities are endless. Pictures below.
Mar 13 - 15: HangZhou, visiting my dear friend ZhouJing, whose Walla Walla house we have been living in for the last few years. She impresses me every single time I visit her work place. She is currently a consultant for this top ranked company Nong Fu Spring which is ranked top 10 food and beverage companies in China and is expected to go public in 2 years, wathc this one. Her specialty is setting up HR systems for companies so they can operate at the tightest and crack proof level. She is currently full-time there and occupies a very important slot. IMPRESSIVE.
Mar 15 - 20: Xian, visiting my mom and my middle sister (Little Cloud and yes, that is her name). More to come.

Karma Candidasa - View from our balcony

This round, we came to Karma Candidasa. It is in a small village near Candidasa which by itself is a slightly larger village. This is the 4th trip to Bali and 3rd Karma resort we stayed in after Karma Kandara and Karma Mayura. Despite the stunning beauties of Kandara and the rich cultures and shopping in Myyura, this is our favorite resort so far. Our unit opens to the ocean and overlooks the resort pool. Village is small with excellent massages and food. We met the resort manager Rafik and his girl friend Marie in Borgo de Coleoli in Italy last October. We reunited here in Candidasa Bali. We feel extremely comfortable here, and will be back for 2 weeks stay next time.

We took a snorkeling trip to the nearby Blue Lagoon. Abundant colorful fishes and calm water. This is our first snorkeling after years of break. We still love it.
