More pictures from my trip

As per my Mom's request, here are some pictures with me in them. This is a picture of me on a camel at MingSha Mountain, which is where the largest sand dunes in the world are located.


That is me there at the top with the blue shirt. This is the part of Hua Mountain where you had to climb on the face of the mountain using chains. It was only scary because there were so many people there.
This is the whole group of us that went on the trip at the top of Hua Mountain. The first row are all the guys, from left to right, Trevor, Matt, John and Sean. The second row from left to right is Me, Sharon, Linnea and Kira. 8 people trying to travel together proved to be difficult, but we had a blast.
This is a picture of us waiting in the ridiculously long line for 3 hours.

This is a picture of Sean, Me, John and Sharon in DunHuang walking around and chatting one night. We were surprised by how cold it got when the sun went down. As I mentioned, Dunhuang had an awesome night market that we frequented when we went there. As you can see, our friend Sharon is Chinese American. She got asked about twenty times a day if she was our tour guide or interpreter, and everyone was surprised when she told them she was our classmate. Chinese people always ask her why she doesn't speak Chinese fluently but she has a good excuse-- she's fluent in Cantonese.
