Procrastination Comes to an End! #3


These are from our last two days in Beijing. Tuesday Feb 16th - Wednesday Feb 17th
Overview: Emperor Mao's tomb at Tienanmen Square, buildings throughout the Square and Forbidden City, the 2008 Olympic Stadium!, strange tower made of old CD's @ the Stadium, the grossest McDonald's ever (yet, we spent over an hour in there), Deton Park, and the Temple of Heaven.





















(Disclaimer - Shaila wrote these post almost one month ago. I apologize for being so late in getting them posted!)

Procrastination Comes to an End! #2


These are from the first night and 2 days in Beijing. Saturday night Feb 13th - Sunday Feb 14th - Monday Feb 15th
Overview: Talk about baggage, a fire filled entrance, worshiping at the Lama Temple, and the Great Wall of China (these pictures do not do justice at all to the actual experience)

Procrastination Comes to an End! #1

My apologies to all. Once I let my self fall out of a routine, it's really hard to get back into it again. But, I found motivation and I'm finally posting again!! Although, I don't really want to go back and recount every detail of the past month.. so would just pictures be alright? I mean, a picture is worth a thousand words, right? Great! So enjoy the past month of my life in China! The pictures in this post are all from before we left for our vacation.

Overview: Chinese traits, beautiful Zhongshan, decorations for the New Year, "Chinese Night"/Sarah's "birthday."
