Tai Chi at dawn on the Yangzi River


Our boat, The Yangzi Explorer, is first class.  Our staterooms are all suites and the boat is luxury (China-style).  Remember the story of “Ping” the duck on the Yangzi River?  Well, Ping has been replaced by a steady stream of barges bringing coal and other products to the great cities of China.  It’s awesome on this river.  The sun is shining.

At the break of dawn, many of us more adventurous travelers were on deck with Dr. Li, the Tai Chi Master (who also is the ship’s doctor …Buddha – help us all) who led us in early morning Tai Chi.  We are one with Confucious.

The pictures say it all.
