Our Group's Final Dinner

A final western meal in the hotel with the group.  Don't ask me why the final dinner would be western.  The tour company doesn't seem to get the notion of going to China to experience China, not a westernized version of it.  We had a lot of meals in the hotels, or in tourist restaurants where we were sometimes the only ones there, or in restaurants with our own room.  Partly it's an issue of China orchestrated much of these trips so we see the picture they'd like us to see.
