Well...

[Talys]

So decided to finally put pictures up.

Me, my brother, and our friend Emily on the plane. (I'm in back.)



Shot from the plane...we flew up to within 150 miles of the north pole and back down...this is close to Siberia.



We did a cultural exchange with the students of the English department of a college in Cheng-de...I'm not in this room, so don't look for me in back...it was right after a show, hence the half uniforms.



Portion of the wall we visited...the top goes way past where you can see...I made it up there though, felt great the next day. [/sarcasm]



Again, a little higher up.



We saw a Peking opera.



Again.



The band.



At this point I start stealing photos from a different person, so order is messed up...not that there was one in the beginning.

Casey, Ben, and I at a Buddha temple...I look odd in this pic.



Drummers make cute couples.



Another class room...



Cool bridge...I think this was at the Summer Palace.



You can't do shit at the temple.



Bird Nest Stadium where the Olympics will be held.



What we dubbed "Squat-a-pots".



Contortionists at an acrobatics show we saw.



Again.



A little more homo-erotic, but still impressive.



Again.



Again.



Spiny things.



She's actually standing straight.



Meh, good enough for now.
