- Eric T. MacKnight { Hi Judy! So glad that you have enjoyed "My Suzhou." I have been to Tiger Hill several times, and enjoyed it. When I sat down to put together "My Suzhou," however, I decided to leave it out.

BTW, Loc, you don't need to go to China for many of the joys of a Suzhou holiday—just go to Portland and visit the LanSu Garden. Great teahouse, too! }

- Julia Common { Really lovely, Eric. You certainly brought me to the heart of Suzhou. Miss it. Best of luck, Julia }
