This morning we went to Tiannamen square where we saw virtually all Chinese tourists. Then we went to visit Forbidden city. We have already seen these places in the past except for Tuyen. In any case, the Forbidden city has been restored prior to the Summer Olympics 2008 so they also increase the price tickets now. Then we went to Jingshan park which is just across Forbidden city. Basically, it is just a park to relax and you can see the panorama of Beijing. After having lunch we went to visit Behai park where there is a white Tibetan Dagoba. It is currently very hot in Beijing over 30C and Behai park is a good location to relax since there is a large lake within this park. Anyway, we consume about 20 bottles of water just for today.
The kids are doing OK; they can cope with the heat but they don't appreciate Beijing's food so they don't eat a lot.

Another wonderful day
Hi Tuyen, Long, Mai and Nam Again the pictures are beautiful; Peking weather is reported as at 40 degree by BBC so H2O is the best healthy food of all. Montreal weather is around 28. All the best
