Today we went to Tiananmen
Square, the Forbidden City & the Summer Palace. It was freezing... the lake
at the Summer Palace was frozen & we weren't far behind. We had our first
experience with "squatty potties" and our first "real"
Chinese food. The potty was gross but the food was great. We also went to the
pearl & silk factories. It's been a long day & now we are about to go
to an acrobatic show. We only slept for a few hours last night so we hope we
can keep our eyes open for the show. Jet lag is some crazy stuff when you are
tired & want to sleep but your body just won't. Hoping tonight we'll be a
little more successful! Tomorrow is our last day in Beijing then off to meet
our daughter.
Happy 19th Birthday, Ry
