Nanjing Trip

So after all the debate of where to go was done the trip was taken.  It certainly wasn't without complaint though.  But I was planning to make the most of it.

Upon checking in to the hotel some rooms weren't right so more complaints, including the "this is the worst company trip ever, I'm going home one."  Now people this is a free weekend with hotel, food, sightseeing, etc shouldn't we just all get along?

Saturday was a full day of sightseeing as you will see in the photos, followed by a dinner that included plenty of drinks sent my way.  Not sure if this was respectful or a "we are going to get you because we don't want to be here" type things.  But during the sightseeing one thing we visited was the memorial of the Japanese invasion to China where 300,000 Chinese were brutally murdered.  I must say it was a spectacular memorial, very first class and respectful.  I would love to go back and really spend some time there.

On Sunday we packed up and headed an hour towards Shanghai when we stopped at a hot springs resort.  No cameras were allowed of course but we had a good time relaxing and letting our muscles recover from all the hiking and walking of the day before.

Enjoy the photos...
