We returned home last night and now today, we are once again packing.<\/p>\n<p>This time we are going on a real adventure!  So far, we have guided kosher trips in China.  China, if you hadn&#8217;t yet noticed, is almost an addiction for me.  A few weeks home and I am ready to travel again.  I spend hour and hours of my own time finding people to go on these tours because I can&#8217;t get enough of China and never have I had a traveler say that it was any less than I had promised.  More frequently I hear at a beautiful site or after a wonderful performance,  &#8220;If only for this, the trip was worth it!&#8221;  And our trips are filled with moments such as those.  There will be four different China trips for English speakers this year&#8211; China and Hong Kong for 17 days, Classic China for 17 days, Shanghai and Beijing, 11 days and Beijing 11 days.  Come one, come all!  <\/p>\n<p>So what does one do for a traveler who would like to have another amazing experience with the same tour guide?  Well, we are going to scout out and learn a new location.  We are traveling to Vietnam and Cambodia.<\/p>\n<p>My husband quips that he almost visited Vietnam all expenses paid in the late 60&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>I will be attempting to blog while we are away, but there is no guarantee that I will be able to get to a computer or to this site.  I am hoping that I will be able to access my gmail, so if you want to reach me, my gmail account has the same name as I use for myself on this blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having just caught our breath from our trip to Tiberias Wednesday and Thursday, once again we packed up and left&#8211; this time to Jaffa, for a shabbat with the Shai Bar Ilan &#8220;family.&#8221; It was wonderful to be with a group of really delightful people and to enjoy a guided tour of Jaffa.
