We had to go to Manchester to collect our visas for China, and we had a beautiful sunny day, and obviously took lots of photos. Since I haven’t exactly been complimentary about the place, I thought I would post a few pics to show how lovely it is when the sun shines!

After we got our visas (£310 plus 2 trips to Manchester) we discovered that we could have gone visa free, if we had stayed one day less. However, the visas do last 2 years, so we are going to make the most of it by having a China holiday in spring 2020. This one looks good.
Right, time to start packing for our next adventure! Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
