Beijing Picture Catch up

Okay, here's what happened;

About a week ago we already filled up the hard drive on my computer with the laqrge amount of picutres and videos taken so far....we have only posted a small portion of the pics we've taken....when we get back and if you have the inclination and several hours, let us know and we'll be happy to show you them all ;)

Anyway, for the last week or so we haven't been able to upload any pictures onto the computer and they've just been slowly filling up our camera memory cards. So yesterday we set out on a mission in Hong Kong to find a cheap portable hard drive. After a bit of research, a couple of ferry rides, and lots of wandering through confusing, hectic, Hong-Kongy (can't think of a better way to describe it until I've had my coffee...this place just looks like Hong Kong....if you've ever watched old jackie Chan movies you know what I mean), we found a 250 gig external hard drive for half the price we'd have paid in Tokyo...not bad and fn adventure.

So now we're good to go on pictures. So here's a catch up from Beijing; The Forbidden City, the Olympics Center, and Skating around on a frozen lake, as well as a few random moments.

I'll do some Hong Kong pictures later on, but it's a pretty incredible contrast in pictures from frozen lake to blue skies and palm trees...time to get going out into the sun again!
