What's New in Marque My Words
Hi everyone! Welcome to the New World!
The last episode of Suzhou's Prodigal Sun finally hits these pages. entitled "Race - the Final Frontier" it covers our latest epic journey into the far west of China: Xinjiang. A separate series of photos are available under the Silk Road, China.
If you haven't seen it yet, there is a new gallery of my favourite shots of China to celebrate both our six years there and our departure. I'm sure you'll enjoy this photo of me, so have a look at the rest!
My previous journal, "The Departure of the Prodigal Sun - Round the World in Eighty Days" can be found below or by clicking this link.
Being here in Redding, California reminds me of that famous song by Otis Redding, it's just a shame there's no dock where I can dangle my feet and watch the tide roll in!
May I wish everyone the best of luck on their travels.
Bon voyage!
