Guzheng - Desert breeze

The Guzheng is another vey typical chinese instrument. Just a few notes are able to bring yourself in the far east! The "real" guzheng is very very big and, althought I was originally prepared to go to the airport and bargain with the crew to bring it on the plane, when I actually saw it in the shop I realized it would have been an impossible task to bring it just to the hotel!
So I opted for this smaller guzheng and I managed to bring it as a hand luggage on the plane. It was the third time I went to China and when I bought the guzheng I was visiting Shangai with my wife. I still don't understand how she managed to be with me and my giant hand luggage at the airport! :-D
