Sometimes a story is best told from the end and then moving back in time before pulling the tale around so that it makes a full circle. Does that makes sence? Well to be more clear we're home. But before we left China, not 5 minutes from our hotel we were stuck on the back right passenger side of the car by a quicly moving white van. Our driver ran through a stop sign and the van had no choice but to hit us. Luckily he was not going at a real fast speed or this would have been another kind of story. No one was hurt and there were 2 to 4 taxis standing around almost instantantiously ready to grab us up and whisk us off to the airport.
We were well taken care of at the airport and our 15 hour flght, including the 1 1/2 hour lay over Beijing, went smoothly.
I'm in a strange time experience right now and though I'm tired, I cannot sleep.
Also I have found out that one of the memory sticks for the digital camera does not work. I had used this memory stick from the middle of the visit to Lasa until the end our the Yangtz river trip and now I have nothing to show for that part of our jouney. This digital thing is all still so very new to me and maybe I'll be able to find someone to help me figure this thing out. The other memory sticks work fine. I don't want to even think about the possibility of not being able to recover those pictures.
But, we're home and now I have to get back on track with the writing. There is much to do and plenty of time to do it in. So, I must get at it.

That's crazy, and could have been much worse. Thank goodness you're home.
