This is two tired chicas climbing the Great Wall. Believe it or not, I actually took them to the WRONG section. As many times as I have been to the Great Wall with visitors, I got the names mixed up. No wonder I couldn't find my favorite toboggan slide down the mountain!
This cute lady really wanted to show us her bird!
I took them by the Olympic stadium complex on their last day in town. That's the bird nest stadium in the background there. How do you like the sand storm? It turns Beijing skies a nice brown color a couple days each spring. No worries, it won't be like that for the summer olympics :) Oh, and the white buildings between me and the stadium are temporary housing that the construction workers live in. Construction workers come to Beijing by the thousands. Migrant workers, but still from China, just from the rural areas of the country.
In front of China's leaning tower. What? Pisa is unique?
Playing in front of the decorative windows in the Suzhou gardens:
Everyone singing their hearts out at Karaoke night:
Getting simultaneous manicures, pedicures and head massages after shopping. Isn't vacation nice?
Here's the girls enjoying my favorite treat on snack street. Strawberries coated in sugar. Who wouldn't love it?
