    I really do envy you, your trav­els, and your cute hair­cut;) I would cut mine short but then I’d really look fat.

    Just so you know, I read you every day.

    Sec­ond inter­est­ing tem­ple! Its real Heaven.

    Hey this is not done; it’s just a tem­ple and you are tired :( You still need to go to “Great Wall Of China” yet :D

    BTW I am wait­ing for updates for “Clos­ing Cer­e­mony of Olympics” :) Did you attend it? Looks like I missed you on TV ;) Are you going to go to Par­a­lympics? It’s from Sep­tem­ber 6–17, 2008. Hope you would gives up updates on that as well :D

    After my two trips to India, I’m here after a long time to catch up on your posts. These lovely pic­tures of a beau­ti­ful tem­ple cer­tainly seems to be an icon of Beijing.

    WOW! I love the first pho­to­graph where you have the con­trast of the tem­ple against the city sky­line in the dis­tance. A great shot that reminds us of what is and what once was. Again, the colours and designs are so beau­ti­ful. The greens, reds and blues are so vibrant and clean.
