Wet in Beijing

The train ride went smoothly with lots of interesting scenery along the way. We arrived in Beijing between rainfalls. It didn't rain again until we left to walk around the area of our hotel which is quite fancy. I've never been to Beverly Hills or Rodeo Drive...but this area has car dealerships like Ferrari, Rolls Royce, and Lamborghini plus all the shopping you could ever want like Gucci, Cartier, and malls on every corner. A much different China that what we have experienced thus far. Unfortunately, the computer power cord has died and the battery has less than an hour of juice left. We ventured into the upscale shopping area for a cord replacement but no computer stores. This may be my last blog entry from China. I will catch up on entries once we get a power source or back to the states. Time to relax and hopefully dry out.
