This is a photo journal
of our June 2007 trip to South East Asia. The purpose was to visit our "Goji
Garden" and arrange new contracts for raw ingredients and finished products. It
was an eye-opening trip as we learned a lot of new data on goji and the real
truth about a lot of goji misinformation. California Academy of Health has sold
goji products for over five years now and is one of the top goji suppliers in
the nation. We hope you enjoy the information and pictures - it was quite an
adventure.
If I only knew that this could have been my last-ever picture, I would have smiled.
We flew Shanghai Airlines for our 3 hour flight to
Yinchuan. It was more like, Fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants Airlines.
I am sure Shanghai Airlines paid about ten bucks for
the plane. The pilot was voted, "most likely to kill a jumbo jet filled with
passengers and chickens." The plane never flew level and rattled
from every loose bolt. When we first touched the runway
landing, the jet bounced about 50 or more feet back up into the air and
went a little sideways. I am not a nervous person but this trip
scared me and almost ruined me from flying all together.
Safely back on terra firma we made a few hours to see
a couple sights.
In a province that has more than its share of stately
pagodas, Haibao Ta is one of the loveliest. Originally built in the
fifth century, it was toppled by the 1739 earthquake and rebuilt in the
original style some 30 years later. Restored since then, it has retained
its distinctive cross-shaped ground plan that adds depth and complexity
to the four-sided tower. Its rare peach-shaped steeple of glazed green
tiles is one of only two -- the other crowns Chéngtian Temple's West
Pagoda.
