PICTURES FROM BEIJING

Finally - internet connection in the room.
 
Here are some pictures from our first full day in Beijing.  Wow - are we really here on the other side of the world?!?
 
Chris on the Great Wall before he continued on without me.
 
Carol with the complimentary bottle of cheap vodka for, er, at lunch. (This bottle is for your bar, Mike.)
 
Chris, who never uses chopsticks, showing off by picking up a peanut with them.
 
Us on a boat at the Summer Palace with a young boy our guide talked into sitting with us.
 
Will post more later today(for us) and tomorrow(for you).

Chris, you're a dork! Carol, me thinks you've been sipping from that little bottle!! Thanks for the pics - China looks wonderful!! And it IS weird that you're on the other side of the world - when I get up I keep thinking, man they're eating dinner, getting ready to settle for the night. Now the only boy I want to see in your pics from now on is Jack!!!!!
