EMPEROR QIN’S TERRA COTTA ARMY (秦陵兵马俑)
For many years now, I have been building up a bucket list. Learn Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Gaelic, Portuguese, etc. Go to every Disney Park in the world. See the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Eat at restaurant in France that has three Michelin Stars. The list keeps growing with each passing day and I wonder if I will ever complete it; however, just recently, I checked a big one off that list on my trip to Xi’An (西安): I saw Emperor Qin’s Terra Cotta Army (秦陵兵马俑).

CHINESE NEW YEAR: YEAR OF THE MONKEY
2016 is the year of the monkey and London held quite a celebration for this Chinese New Year.

With events being held in Trafalgar Square and nearby China Town there was an abundance of things to see and do, as people rang in the new year.
