China trip

Weather conditions for our tour

Of course, being less than a prophet, I can't tell you with perfect certainty, but the weather throughout our tour should be warm and pleasant.  The temperatures throughout should be in approximately the 70-75 F (20-25 C) range.  We may have rain and we may have cool evenings.  We may also have warmer days.  We suggest bringing clothing that will adapt to being worn in layers so that you can shed a light jacket and/or a sweater as it warms up from morning to afternoon and put on again as it cools in the evening.  Make sure you bring a raincoat or poncho or umbrella.  We've found that in the past, the better equipped we were, the less rain fell.  On some tours we have had no rain at all.

As to shoes, we recommend a good pair of comfortable walking shoes.  We will not be hiking over rough terrain and people may be fine with a good pair of sandals as a second pair of shoes.  

There is no need to bring dressy or fancy clothes.  Even on shabbat, we will remain casual.  We will not be in the vicinity of a synagogue.

Warm regards to all,

Rona & Aaron
