And we lived to tell the tale
Just to give everyone a quick update…
We have officially finished our leg of the trip in Beijing! Wow, what a lot of things we have done. Today we explored the ‘Great Mall of China,’ visited the Confucian Temple, The Lama Temple, and The Forbidden City. We added to our list of different types of transportation, including a motorcycle with a hutch on the back to fit passengers and walked along a shopping district street other that the Great Mall. We are making this a short entry (but we gave you pictures) because we have to get up at 4 in the morning to catch our next flight out to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia!
Wishing everyone is well and will write again soon
Leslie and Sandy
