Beijing

So we arrived in Beijing this morning via train from Shanghai. The train wasn't too bad, it was quite comfortable actually. When we arrived in Beijing we checked into our hotel and then used google maps to find a public transit route to the Summer Palace. Google maps is very clutch. We're starting to learn the public transit system here in Beijing. It's alot more crowded than back home, as you can see for yourself below.




We rode public transit from our hotel across the city to the Summer Palace, the place where the Empress Dowager went to hang out during the summer. Jasper decided to show off his skills at the Palace.

going to the great wall tomorrow, stay tuned!
