Beijing really is an incredible city that is 3,000 years old. Kilometer after kilometer of amazing high rises with new ones on the way. You can forget you are in a communist country.Our hotel has 26 stories and I was surprised how easy it was to walk down.
We toured the the Tienanmen's Square and the Forbidden City. It amazed me how huge the Forbidden City was. We kept going through layer after layer of courtyards as well as hundreds of years of history. We ended the touring here with a rickshaw ride through the historic old town section. Let me tell you, there is no room for a bus to get through there.
Tomorrow we will with travel to the Nanjing with one other couple who has been with us here and meet up with two more families who did not choose to tour beforehand. We will get our children Tuesday afternoon. Yeah! Please pray for smooth transitions!
