First Entry - At long last, a trip back to Maple Leaf Country

Hello everyone, how's it goin' eh? I hope everyone enjoys my weblog. I plan to share anecdotes and observations from a westerner's perspective. Some will have happened years ago, others very recently. Currently, I live in Chongqing, China, a large city on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.  
 
What is going on right now is that after two years and four months straight of living in the land of hot pot, hills, and fog, I have finally come home to the Great White North of Ontario, Canada. It will be a short but sweet visit, and everyone is gathering to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary.  
 
Welcome to Red Heart Moon! Feel free to leave comments after any entry, and I hope you enjoy this look at "China Through the Eyes of a Resident Foreigner". Happy reading!

I LOVE your webpage! It is so descriptive and informative. It has been 8 years since I've been to Chongqing, so I can imagine how it has changed just through your description. When I was there, the hydro-electric dam was under construction, and the government was in the process of re-locating people all along the Yangtze to higher ground. Sounds like there have been a lot of changes in Chongqing. Bo

Hello Kevin,
Thank you very much for your informative painting of the China that I would very much love to see. You are my eyes until I get there myself, so keep up the wonderful website.

Meanwhile, I will continue to enjoy the Chinese people, food and culture here on the Big Turtle. Oh, and playing the Yang Qin!!!
