Hey where ARE you guys? You haven't posted in a couple weeks (or, am I just computer illiterate?) Are you imprisoned in China or are you on a spiritual journey to Tibet? Miss the posts and the great photos. Safe journey, Laryssa Wow it all looks so good!

Then you showed Thushan's photo of a pint of lager, which is French (Kronenbourg being France's most popular beer!) Immediate apologies to the relevant Embassies should prevent this escalating into an international conflict! you got my appetite whetted now!
