Architectural Charm

See? I didn't lie. There is an abundance of eye-candy here in the architecture. I wished I could post ALL my pictures...sadly, it would take me too long.

Scenery

Another view of what's at Gulang Yu.

I can imagine some tragic love story being enacted out here. Sigh.

Street view

What we saw while finding Remy's place.

Temple

As we wound our way to our B & B we passed this temple.

What a lovely time!! You both look so relaxed in the pics. And the hotel - beautiful! I am somewhat envious for sure. Take care.
