AnonymousThe last time I had been to China Town in Los Angeles, my teen age daughter was studying martial arts and we bought an engraved Japanese sword. (personally, I studied tai chi).
In Aug. 06 our UCLA class with Dr. Clay Dube spent an afternoon in Chinatown. If you visit the web site, oldchinatownla.com, you will be supplied with names of movies and television shows that were filmed there.
I was honored to be part of the luncheon where our East Asia Institute class exchanged friendship and educational practices over a delicious meal, graciously provided by the Institute/UCLA. It brought tears to my eyes because 30 years ago I was the guest of the Chinese, enjoying wonderful banquets, conversations and various cultural events while touring several cities during my month there.
I hope to return. (to Chinatown in LA??????) maybe. I hope to return to CHINA!!
