Hello everyone,
I am writing my last blog from Bejiing. What a whirlwind the time here has been. We have walked and walked and climbed and been out in 34 degree temperature. We saw Tianemen Square, Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Ming Tombs, and the Great Wall. I climbed the Great Wall at high noon in about 36 degrees Celcius. That was quite a day.
We dined on authentic Peking duck yesterday. We went to see the Bejiing Acrobatic Show on Sunday night. We have seen some of the Olympic venues. We saw the Olympic stadium where they will have the opening/closing ceremonies. It is called the Bird's Nest by the locals because of its' shape.
Gotta go now. We are leaving for the airport in an hour and a half. So we are leaving here at 5:00 a.m. Tuesday morning, Nova Scotia time and will arrive in Halifax at 11:00 p.m.
