Well, I had a great time in Beijing. I stayed at the Beautiful Peninsula Hotel and spent 3 nights in a Club Grand Deleux room, visited the Forbidden City which was awesome, went to the Temple Of Heaven which was also cool, but none can compare to the Great Wall. I hiked and climbed the Great Wall Of China for over a mile and 1/2. The pathway on the Great Wall can get very steep, especially the last leg to the very top (That almost killed me for really, just steps away from a heart attack), but it was still very spectacular, and by far a monument that is a must see. I then went to the Emperor's Palace which is located on a lake, and is very very beautiful, also a must see.

I am now in Xian and am currently staying at the Beautiful Shangri-La Hotel with a huge room. So far in Xian I have been to the Emperor's Tomb, The Tarakata Museum which is home to the famous warriors, the Xian City Wall which was beautiful, and ended up at the City Museum.

Tomorrow I head off to Chongqing to visit the Zoo and see Pandas, and later on I get aboard the Beautiful Yangtze Explorer and travel downstream on the Legendary Yangtze River.

My trip is awesome so far, and I am taking a lot of pictures and videos. Sadly because I am in a strict country, facebook and Youtube are shut off by the government, so I have no access to them. So the Pictures have to wait until I'm back in San Francisco.

That's all for now, I'll keep you updated.

C-ya
