Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.

Our trip from hotel to Bus station was very interesting to say the least. It seems that we are leaving with more luggage than we came with. It took two taxies and a van to get us to the bus station and then we were on the bus over one hour to airport. Some of team members had to buy additional luggage. Regardless we made our flight with minutes to spare. Flying time to Beijing was 2.5 hours and we arrived in Beijing at 3:30 p.m. Our host was waiting for us with large bus. We just finished dinner in the hotel and some of the team went for walk with guide around Beijing. Others (me included) are going to bed early. We must be ready to board tour bus for Great Wall tomorrow morning at 7:00 a.m. We will visit Forbidden City and Tinanninen Square on Thursday. Our plane leaves Beijing at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday.

OK....that's all for now. I will post tomorrow night after our day at the Great Wall.

RT: Can't wait to see all those pictures and hear of your journey. Did KT let you borrow her camera? Darrel is having knee surgery right now and all seems to be going as planned.

Blessings to all.
