Well I'm sorry that I haven't got a chance to update this blog! We can't log in to our blog over here. But we made it safely! We landed about 8 o clock p.m Bejijing time{7 a.m Texas time} By the time we made it through the airport, ate, and checked in it was about 11 o clock so we were all really tired. That next morning we had to get up at 8 and eat breakfast. The breakfast was really good! We left our hotel at about 9 and headed over to the Summer Palace. It was really big and beautiful. So we walked around in that for most of the morning. Next we ate some chinese food for lunch. We've had alot of Chinese! and chop sticks are TERRIBLE! I'm not very good at it! So i just use a fork! haha. After that we rode around in the old city on rick shaws which was pretty neat. To finish our day we watched acrobats. They were crazy! doing crazy stunts. It was kinda scary to watch. But none of them fell or got hurt. A very tiring day! Our beds here in the King Wing Hot Spring Hotel are hard! It's pretty much like sleeping on the floor. But our rooms are very chilly which makes up for it!

Day 2
Well this morning we had to wake up a little bit earlier. But it was all good. Our breakfast was delicous again! We left our hotel at about 8:40 a.m for the two hour drive to the Great Wall of China. It was very very big! Lots and lots of stairs! But we all made it a little ways at least. After the long hike we were all starving so we got to eat at a American Pizza/ Chinese food buffet and it was pretty delicous. Next we went to the Forbidden City and Tiennemen Square. Wow! What architecture and design that these people thought of. Very amazing! To end the day we ate supper. It was good also. At the moment its 8:46 p.m here {7:46 a.m Texas time. During all the rides to the different places we've been with another family, they are adopting they're second chinese baby. They have the first one with them and she is 4 years old. She is the cutest thing! Her name is Alexus[ or Lexi].She has really got me excited about getting CyLynn! I can't wait untill Monday. WEll goodnight from China!
