Day 5 - Beijing


Another fantastic day....hot and sunny. A great morning spent at the Summer Palace that ended with a tasty lunch and a cool ride in a huge dragon boat.

After a short bus ride we made a 45 minute stop at the pearl factory. I'm sure a few people back in Toronto will be getting a nice gift when their families return.

It only took 13 hours in a plane and 4 days but we made it to the Silk Market. More gifts for back home I'm certain. A quick dinner and a fantastic Kung Fu show to finish off the day.

With a departure time of 10AM and and arrival time back at the hotel of 10PM it was a long day.... Tomorrow will be just as amazing and just as long. The 6AM wake-up call is going to be here soon.

Hope everyone is well in T.O and that's it for today in China. Talk to you soon..... Mr. V
