China Arrival in Bejing







We had a good flight and it was not that crowded.  Managed six hours of sleep.  The first day we went to an expatriate bookstore and cafe for breakfast and then some K-12 students taught us some rudimentary Mandarin.  Visited some Microsoft Learning projects as well.  Went to the Supermarket last night.  Interesting mix of packaged food and traditional items.  The past versus the future seems to be a theme.  Dinner last night was amazing and the Kung Pao chicken was superb.  After getting back to our room, my roommate went to the restroom before bed and by the time she came out I was asleep and did not say goodnight.  Slept pretty well, awake a couple of times.  Great buffet this morning and excited about today, Going to The Great Wall and Forbidden City today.  Will send pictures. Above photo is the Beijing airport, and it is huge.
