Flexable Man
This is the man that had his legs behinde his ears. He was very flexable! idk(I don't know) if I could even do that! This was one of our last full days in Beijing, China! We went to the Temple Of Heaven.
We took the public bus to the temple. The Temple Of Heaven wasn't really a temple was almost like a huge park!!! Parker and I both got a hackie sack except it wasn't a bean sack, it also had feathers. It was really neat. When we bought them we started to play with them. We weren't too good at it, but it was very fun! We also saw a man who had his legs up behind his ears and a pole that went across his shoulders and between his feet. He also had 2 stools to balance on. It was amazing to see what he could do. There was a work out area that Parker and I played on. Then we headed for the temple. The temple was smaller then you would think. You would think that it would be a tall temple because the taller the temple the closer to heaven. Inside the temple we saw a throne. Emperors and emperoress would go there once a year and give thanks for a good harvest.
After we went to a smaller
Temple Of Heaven
This is where the emperores would come and give thanks for a great harvest. There was a throne inside.
temple. It looked alot like the Temple Of Heaven, but smaller. There the emperores would change. From there we walked to what the Chinese call 'The Center Of The Earth'. there were 9 steps and 9 rings going around the top of the stairs. 9 was a lucky number in China. After the 9 rings around the Chinese Center Of The Earth, there was a small flat round rock. We all stood on the rock, we all got to be in the Chinese Center Of The Earth. There was not really a different feeling when you stood on the rock. It was just reeeeeeaaaaly coooooooool!!!!!
We then headed back to the Pearl Markert. Nobody got toooo much. Just a few things. It was very hot going back on the bus. It was pretty much in the middle of rush hour, and the bus wasn't too full =) That was a surprise!!!
When we got off the bus we came back to the room and dropped everything off at the the rooms. Parker and I took the hackey sack with feathers outside along with our bouncey balls. We played with our bouncey balls first. They were really fun the
Smaller Temple Of Heaven

Later tonight we will go to Tiannenman Square. Tomorrow is out last full day in China!!!! 7= We leave Saturday. We have all morning to do things. Our plane doesn't leave until 6:05pm. We have to meet our guide at 2. So after lunch we need to come back to the room and get our bags ready. If we check out before 1 no charge! =D We SHOULD do that!!!
