“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”

Sarah & I toured the Summer Palace on our first full day in Beijing, China. It was a spectacular day but Sarah wasn’t too pleased with me by the end. The temperature reached an incredibly hot 40˚C, and not only did I make her climb to the top of Longevity Hill to take some photos, but I also got us lost on our way back to the Metro. We eventually made it back to our hotel room to cool off before dinner.

This is Kunming Lake and it is part of the Summer Palace in Beijing.
