The tour of Yu Garden and it’s neighbouring Bazaar was enthralling, entertaining, and the market place was huge and busy.

What is the “fake market”? A market that isn’t real like fake store fronts or they sell “fakes” like “Chanal” and “Yves Snot Lauren”? PS – I’m living vicariously through you!

Yes I was lucky to go on the trip and get into China, at the Beijing airport they had a body temperature scan, and my temp’ came up normal, I was so scared, because the plane trip and travel took a total of 22 hours from my home to my hotel room, and I was feeling so sick !! xxx
