And yes (!!!), Guilin is definitely something to visit. Unfortunately, it's not very close to Beijing, especially not by car. It's in the southwest portion of China, but it's a two-hour plane ride from Shanghai. :) As far as Shanghai weather goes, the pollution isn't up the wazoo as Beijing, but that's not to say the air quality is completely pristine. It's just a thick blanket of heat/humidity that really makes the summer unbearable. Nevertheless, I still think Shanghai is worth visiting! :) I have so many photos to put up; it’s ridiculous.

I love the first picture especially. So so so so gorgeous. I love those pretty names--and it's even better that the places live up to them!! Names are important. :) Oh, man. I knew the pollution was bad in Beijing, and the weather is ridiculous, but I'd heard that Shanghai was nicer, haha. I guess if I ever return to China, it'll be Guilin I'll go to. :D Is that relatively close to Beijing? Doesn't matter, though, I guess. And whoa, stinks about the window seat! I can't wait to see the rest of the photos! Guilin looks so beautiful. :) :O :O :O :O That’s SO gorgeous. I love the first picture especially. So so so so gorgeous.
