Anabela's Birthday (August, 2005)

Anabela was the belle of the ball on her birthday. She graciously hosted us at Shikumen Bistro at Xintiandi, then we headed over to JZ for some jazz and cocktails and conversation. Epilogue at sketchy Julu Lu not posted here.

Lijiang (August, 2005)

A trip out to Lijiang in Yunnan Province, supposedly one of the most beautiful cities in all of China. Indeed it was, despite the non-stop rain, and had some quality family time to go along with it.
