Resting in Beijing

We have rested the past couple days. Beijing is six hours ahead of Cairo. It is nice to not move at the pace we've been moving the past couple months. Yesterday we received our first ever full body message. There is a place around the corner that gives one hour messages for 68 Yuan (about $10). A message before 5pm is $8. Nice! We hope to venture into the city and surrounding areas in the coming days. Today we went to his daughters Christmas play at school. Each class has two teachers. One speaks Chinese and the other English. Tonight Dan has invited us to a Christmas party with his fellow airline pilots. Tomorrows high -4. The low is -13.

  1. COMMENT! Hey guys. Tell the Fadlings hello for us. So I don't know how this happened but somehow I just came across the post card you sent us from Switzerland...I think Laurel had already seen it but just didn't tell me about it. Anyway, I'm so glad you like the book! It's been a huge one in our lives and we're glad to know that it impacted you guys as well. And thanks for the cool card. Glad you are getting good time with the Fadlings...they are awesome. Peace out guys...hope you have bought a winter coat by now. :)
