China Day 1

Okinawa…Taipei…Hong Kong…Beijing…Grammie and Grandpa! Day One’s mission accomplished.



The kids anxiously awaiting the first flight out of Okinawa.



Made it to Beijing without any hitches. First impressions: Beijing airport is huge, massive, colossal, vast (get the picture?) I think you could fit the entire population in there.



Emmy was not so impressed by the Beijing airport!



We were met by our private guide and driver (doesn’t that sound posh?) and driven to our hotel in downtown Beijing. The funny thing is that the roads seemed void of cars and the people were missing too. There were some, but not the masses I was expecting. Grammie told me to wait until tomorrow…

Grammie and Grandpa arrived in Beijing on Friday in order to adjust to the time some – of course they’ve already seen Tiananmen Square and eaten Peking Duck without us. We’ll catch up tomorrow!
