Beijing

We have been in Beijing for the past few days.  The Internet system is very different here.  It seems to have certain blocks against certain sites.  We went to the Great Wall.  The steps are very steep and seem to go on forever.  We have eaten a lot of Chinese food and seen many markets.  We saw Tian'an men Square and toured a few Chinese homes.  Last night we had roast duck and walked around a downtown market.  There were many different kinds of foods to eat.
Today we flew to Hangzhou, the province Mia is from.  It is a beautiful city near a lake and it has a large river near by.  The grass is green and there are flowers planted everywhere.

We get to meet her in the morning!  We are so excited to finally meet her.  We will be in Hangzhou all week.  Friday we will be going to Guangzhou.
