Hi Caroline,

I don't think we've 'spoken' before!! My name is Pauline and I am booked on the China trip too. Have been in touch with a couple of other people who are going and it's nice to know someone else is going too!!

Hi Caroline,

It's great to hear from another fellow traveller. Are you going down to Gatwick the night before or travelling down the day of take off?

Hello Caroline,

I went on this holiday at the age of 65 and even managed the 'tough' stretch of the Great Wall. Provided you are reasonably fit you will have no problems. It is a fascinating holiday and will make a marvelous birthday present to yourself.

On a practical note, I took some Chinese money with me but, as all meals etc are included, I actually spent very little. There are plenty of ATM machines. We went in September and the weather varied between hot and dry to cool and damp. Silk products are to die for as are the beautiful scrolls, two of which adorn my walls.

You will have a great time.

Hello David thank you for the tips, I'm so exited and counting the days, I'm planning to get some art works as I love Chinese and Japanese art. I'm also a keen photogrher too. This will be my third tour with just you. Thanks again Caroline

Hi Caroline, According to my paper work the flight takes off at 12 noon although it is possible that could change as my paper work is from October!! I will be travelling down the day before as I live in Hertfordshire and am staying at the Acorn Lodge in Horley along with another lady called Pauline who is travelling from up North!! We will have to look for your Just You luggage label.

Look forward to meeting you.

Good afternoon Caroline,

Your Tour Manager has now been allocated, I can confirm it's a great Gentleman called John Drylie. He will be meeting you at Heathrow and flying out with the group, he will also be Tour Managing the Yangtze add on,

I hope this helps and thank you for your patience,

Kindest,

Ben
