Beds and birds nests
Yeah the birds nest is looking good - glad you could see it through the pollution. Hope Dad and Christine can get you out of the hostel and into a proper bed somewhere for a few days. Dont get run over by the bicycles, enjoy the Wall et al, and have a great time whne you get to Shanghai! Bill
