Enjoy!
Eating what turned out to be very un-curry tasting curry on the rooftop with the Two Towers(tm) in the backround (Bell on the left, Drum on the right).
Hiking up to the wall to then start the climb reminded us how fit we are...aka not. It was high! See that little path way down below? Well we had to start from way back there...They only gave us 3 hours to climb on the wall itself, half of that was just making our way TO it!
If you don't know where we are, well...
The Temple of Heaven, also known as the Temple of 2 Million Tourists.
It had to be done.
What did you think of the flag lowering ceremony at Tian Amen after waiting forever for it to start only to find out it was in fact just a lowering of the flag with a few marching guardsmen? No fireworks! No music and national anthems! Not even any paddle boats, sheesh!!
The Forbidden City.
After each drink we became bester and bester bestest friends.
Grapes on a Stick covered with toffee - only bested by Strawberry on a stick with toffee, you have no idea how good these things were..the grapes...holy crap, sweestest grapes I have ever eaten. *pantpant*
Me overlooking approximately the same number of average tourists found at any tourist attraction in China except these were made from terracotta.
We love grown adults in pyjama's in public - just love it. This was pre-train at the station. We saw im in the morning as well, kicking along in the same get-up. Like cat's, we like to catch as many of these on camera as possible.
Random girl in Xi'an - chance of her knowing what her hat reads: 19%
Last but not least, one of the many beer friendly perches in our current destination, Chengdu.
