More photos to come... here's the first few:
At Brandenberg Tor in Berlin. When Napoleon conquered Berlin he took that bronze statue you see in the back and brought it to Paris. It was returned a while later. This gate was closed up until the Berlin Wall fell (portions of the Berlin Wall can still be seen around parts of Berlin now still).
At the Hamburg city hall
In Dubai on the Arabian Sea
At the indoor (5 slopes!) skiing facility in the Emirates Mall at Dubai
In Shanghai across the river from the Pearl TV tower.
In Shanghai on one of the major streets.
In Xi'An in front of one of the ancient temples.
In Xi'An in front of one of the oldest temples in China
The terra cotta soldiers in Xi'An. You can get an idea of the scale of this find by the size of the people on the edges and in the rear back of this room. It was MASSIVE. Each soldier is life size.
In front of the building
On one of the sides of Hua mountain. One of the main mountains of China. K and I climbed 10,000 stairs that day.
Pimp Shot! That's about US $70 in Chinese RMB in my hand there.
Holla!
