This is China: Ode to Lingshan

Over the next few days, I will document my trip to China. It was an interesting trip to China, as all of my previous trips have been. It is such a place of diversity, even though it is easy to make generalizations. It is a place at odds with world I know and even at odds with itself. And amidst the hawking, smoking, crazy traffic and icky food there are generous people, cute kids, admirable elders and beautiful landscapes.
