We arrived safely and on time in Beijing. The flight was pretty smooth and seemed to pass relatively quickly. Customs was a breeze and our guide Daisy met us on the other side of baggage claim. From moment one, she has treated us like official dignitaries!! We went to the hotel to check in and to relax, then to an acrobatic show that was really something! There's lots more to tell, but we're both beat and need some sleep. Keep an eye on the site and we'll have more details!
Here's a view from our hotel room in Beijing. We are very close to Tiennanmen Square and the Forbidden city.
The acrobatics show was beautiful and amazing! In this picture, 2 men combine to make a Dog that can do tricks. They have to synchronize their movements and it really looks like one person doing it.
