After a brief look at our China Compass sponsors and this week’s Pray for China cities, we revisit a few exciting stories from LAST summer which didn’t get the traction I had hoped.

First, we head to Jilin (Lucky Forest) and my arrest on the North Korean border in 2003 (13:25).

Then we trek to Tibet where I talk about the geography and language, and my four ILLEGAL visits to the region, the last of which got a gun pulled on me (29:01).

Last, we hop on the train for an epic journey across far west China’s Xinjiang Province (followed by layovers in Urumqi, Dalian, Hiroshima, Tokyo, and Okinawa on my return “flight” home to central China (45:25).
