The Forbidden Palace - Beijing

To get you in the mood...Here's Cheryl and Usha in front of Mao's Tomb in Tiananmen Square.

Cheryl arrived today in Beijing a little after noon (remember it's already tomorrow there) had lunch and then set off for the site of the 2008 Summer Olympics. Cheryl's travelling partner is her friend and co-worker Usha who is in the photo below eating watermelon. Watermelon signals the end of the meal.
The Temple of Heaven.
The following photos are from The Forbidden Palace.


Musicians in the park.

Tomorrow (today really) they are visiting the Great Wall of China and whatever other things they can find to do.

Thanks, Mike, for getting Cheryl's blog up every day. But where are the pictures from the Highland Games yesterday?

I wish I could be at the Great Wall today! But instead we just got home from camping.
