What a day! I've never been so tired. We started off at 8:00 andhe added out to the Forbidden City, the Imperial Palace, and the great Tian'anmen Square. We walked about 5 miles to cover these attractions. I've never seen so many people. They aren't shy about pushing and shoving either. We had a great lunch at a Chinese restaurant. Everything is served family style with a lazy Susan in the middle. Then, we went to the Summer Palace and walked some more! We stopped at a pearl store on the way. We came back to the hotel and showered and were back in the bus to go to dinner..We had Peking duck at a restaurant know for it. The chef carved the ducks at our table. We put several slices on a wonton wrapper and rolled it up like a taco. It was really good, better than I had thought it would. I am so tired and ready for bed. We leave in the morning before 8. Looking forward to walking on the Great Wall. Night, all!
