ShenZhen, China is just across the border
from Hong Kong to Mainland China.
We have been many to ShenZhen
many times, once to activate our
Chinese Visas, and other visits to shop at the
"large and spacious building", but we
had never been to the main part of the city.
Two months ago we reserved this weekend
to make a trip to see the metropolis that has
a larger population than Beijing.
We went SHOPPING:
For high-end tote bags, UGG boots,

After our visit to Window of the World
we made a trip to Papa John's Pizza.
It's was SO GOOD!
It's amazing how great things taste
when you haven't had them for awhile.
GOOD pizza is hard to come by in China.
As we crossed the border from Shenzhen, China
to Hong Kong we took a moment to look
back - realizing this, most likely,
will be our last time to
visit Mainland China
before we leave Hong Kong to return
to our HOME in Georgia.
We are SO GRATEFUL for the experience
of traveling the world!!
