China stone diary

I met Kevin Hives [Stonepave] at Heathrow airport who is accompanying me to China. We are flying via Hong Kong to Xiamen and with the time difference should arrive late at night on the 21st. Kevin has made arrangements to go to the quarry where my stone is being cut, but that is the most difficult part to plan. The quarries are all owned and run by the Chinese government, so it is very much out of his hands. I am not quite sure what to expect, but as we wait for the plane to take off I am filled with anticipation.
