On Sunday I said I would post something yesterday or today, so I better keep my word. I had a plan to develop some more photos and add them, but I honestly haven’t had time. I will try to do this over the weekend but it may be Tuesday when I add a new post. The number one question I have been getting lately is about jetlag. There is a theory that it takes one day for each time zone you travel across to fully adjust/recover. In this case it would be about 12 days, and when I flew from the U.S. to China this formula was quite accurate. Upon my return it seems to be going much faster. Although I did feel a bit out of it the first two days, today I feel almost back to normal. I have somehow gotten regular sleep each night and I feel lucky for it. The biggest adjustment for my body so far has been the food. The food I typically eat in the States is much more calorie dense than the wonderful food we ate in China. Other than that, my re-entry to ‘life as I know it’ has been pretty seamless.
Since I don’t have any photos for visual stimulation I added a Google map of our general travels. China is a huge country so it was nice to draw some lines and plot some points to see where we visited. Click here to check it out.
Welcome home Bill. Glad you had such an interesting trip. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. We really enjoyed all of your photos and information.
Thanks Karen! I truly appreciated the support during the trip.
