We flew into Beijing at 2:20 p.m. and proceeded to navigate its huge airport. One interesting fact: you use a monorail to get to the baggage claim area. We saw some interesting sights outside the bus window as we headed for the hotel including a "pay for books to read" stand.

The hotel exterior, lobby, and rooms were very beautiful. Roberta, Kathy, Alma and I went for a short walk around the neighbourhood. In a park we saw several small, cute dogs which their owners were happy to show off. We also saw a kindergarten complete with a school crossing sign. Alma and I could see that same kindergarten from our 7th floor window. Dinner was a lovely buffet in a very nice dining area of the hotel.
