We arrived in Beijing after an overnight
flight from London and hit the ground running. Catherine and
Enkhbold, our friends from OffTheMap
Tours met us at the airport and took us to the hotel.
Then it was off to Tiananmen Square
As you can see the weather was hot and
humid with quite a lot of pollution haze. People were queuing to
look at the preserved body of Chairman Mao.
The Chinese people are friendly and inquisitive,
but do tend to stare at westerners especially Pat who is taller
than your average Chinese woman!
