Nanjing, China – Day 5 Old Villages, Fuzi Miao and amazing people

August 30, 2019 by thekellysontour No Comments

(From our trip in April 2018)

One of husband’s absolute fave things is visiting supermarkets when we are in other countries.  Seeing the things that we think are random and weird is such a great insight into everyday life so a local supermarket was our first destination for the day.

Nanjing, China – Day 4 Massacre Museum, more stairs, and stares….

August 21, 2019 by thekellysontour No Comments

(From our trip in April 2018)

We headed off for another day of adventures.  First we went to buy train tickets for our trip to Shanghai in a few days.  Whilst there I had another “celebrity” moment.  This lady was lined up to get tickets also and she was just so goddamn in love with me – I mean derrr.  Remember I mentioned previously that being blonde and “larger than life” in China is considered amazing?  Well friends I’m living my best life right here in Nanjing.  I’m ALL OF THE THINGS let me tell you!!!!  She was so incredible for my ego, she told me I was beautiful, asked if she could hug me and we took a selfie together.  I think I can state with confidence that my face is now in a frame on her bedside table with red lipstick kisses all over the glass as her idol of all time.  (Not gonna lie….if she was rich, a girl mighta just had to get a quickie divorce and make an honest woman of her).

Nanjing, China – Day 3 Ming’s Tomb and other wonders

July 17, 2019 by thekellysontour No Comments

(From our trip in April 2018)

After a huge sleep because yesterday was epic and exhausting, we were up and out the door for another day of torture sightseeing.  A lot of the big cities in China, and I guess all around the world where there is lots of pollution, work on an air rating system.  I am not a Rhodes Scholar on the subject but the lower the air rating for the day the better.  The higher the air rating, the “abort abort, don’t go out, build a bunker and live underground for 50 years while we try and fix the problem” alarm sounds in people’s heads.

Nanjing, China – Day 2 Temples, Walls, Markets and more…

July 16, 2019 by thekellysontour 1 Comment

(From our trip in April 2018)

I had told my friend and amazing host, KY that all we wanted out of our few days with her family in Nanjing was to see a fresh food market, maybe a couple of old things, husband always enjoys a visit to a big local supermarket but mostly we wanted to experience what their everyday life is like here, a few relaxing days of catching up over food and bevvies with their family and we would be happy Kelly’s indeed.

Ummmmm, she had other plans…..
