Hello!
We've done so much in the past week, literally taken 7 flights in 7 days if you count our connecting flights! We've been delayed on one flight in Xian, had to miss our connecting flight to Bangkok, and ended up staying the night in Xian (unplanned) and arrived to Bangkok a day late. We also nearly missed our connecting flight between Ghanzhou to Bangkok and were stopped by the police for running in the airport...
Today we had the time of our lives today riding the Elephants and feeding the monkeys - it was UNREAL! We've seen the city of Beijing, the Olymipic Arena Area in Beijing (The Cube and Birds Nest) we've walked along the Great Wall of China seen the Terracota Warriors, Forbidden City and the list goes on. In Xian we had ended up in a Traditional Chinese Restaurant (which Brett had just mentioned a few nights prior that he wanted to "experience") and BOY DID WE EXPERIENCE! We (I Brett says) might have eaten Snake. I also proclaimed that I had the WORST car ride of my life returning home from the Great Wall (our driver nearly fell asleep every 5 minutes and would only wake up to the sound of other car horns and road bumps). Off to explore the many wonders of Bangkok, tomorrow a flight to Phuket to start our Island Adventure!
So cool Gina! Did you know the building of the birds nest caused the price of steel to sky rocket in the whole world...crazy! I am so happy you guys are enjoying your time!
