Hello Crystal,
My wife and I would like to tell you that we had a really good tour to see the Terracotta Warriors while on our Holiday in China. Would you please extend our thanks to the Excellent Guide Lu Yan Ping ( Lu Lu) in Xian. Also while in Beijing we believe that Mr Zhong guo ping ( English Name: Edward ) also working for your company should recieve praise for guiding us to The Great Wall.
