First night exploring
We really feel like we are in China
The first morning in China and we have torrential rail. Nothing gets in the way of the sightseeing though. First stop Tiananmen Square.
Then onto the Forbidden City
We are told it is quiet today due to the weather. I wonder what it is like on a busy day!
A change of clothes is due as I know know the true meaning of the phrase 'soaked to the skin'
Mmmm, and lunch too.
Love the Chinese wet weather gear
The camera has steamed up inside the rickshaw
Shichahai Lake
Night market
The Olympic Garden
The Summer Palace
Our dragon boat
The Long Corridor
The Great Wall of China
I knew it would involve some climbing but I wasn't quite prepared for how steep it was
The further we walked the less tourists
Until we could walk no further
