I am sorry that I cannot upload pictures larger than 100 KB. But I would very much like to share larger pictures with anyone that are interested. I have to admit that only with larger ones can one appreciate them in the real sense. They are originally 500 KB with 1200*1600 in size.

I like boxes and the black lacquer one you got is a great souvenir. What a different place China must be, except for the 21st century 'amenities'. Somehow, the whole world can feel like your own backyard. Thanks for sharing. I've enjoyed the show. Tom What a great visit, Chris. I like boxes and the black lacquer one you got is a great souvenir.
