All visitors put on these coats to tour the factory. Stylish? The workers also wear uniforms.
We said goodbye to our very wonderful hosts in Tiefa this morning and headed to Shenyang. It was pouring, a good day to tour the BMW plant here.

We had lunch at a Korean Restaurwnant, we didn't order DOG, but we did have Squid, which was excellent.

The hotel is the Sheraton, Nora Mike and I were tired so we decided after checking into this fabulous hotel to take advantage of the pool, hot tub and wonderful spa facilities. We spent all afternoon pampering ourselves. This is the way to travel, thank you ANDREW and HAIHONG!!

We are off to Xian tomorrow. I am not sure of internet connections, so it may be a while before I blog, or you might get a note from me tomorrow. I just don't know what to expect. Nora, Mike and I are totally on our own without the crutch of a Chinese speaker. Don't worry if you don't hear until early in the week.

Having a wonderful time!!

But she didn't like it! I did though, and the barbeque was excellent.

Our rooms at the Sheraton are excellent, and the spa was wonderful on this rainy day. We did miss the giant statue of Mao for the spa......Oh, and it does have a shower and a bathtub that are private!

Andrew read that half the construction cranes in the world are in China. I cannot verify that, but we did count 25 right outside the hotel
