Beijing



Well, I'm here. I passed out around 7:30pm after putting my little sister Jessye to bed- Chantal and Phil had to go to some dinner. I actually passed out before putting Jess to bed but i did wake up to read her a bed time story- what a good sister! :)

I slept 12 hrs (thanks to the melatonin- apparently it helps jet lag) and left the house with Chantal around 8:30am. We took the subway ($0.50) to the Lama temple ($3.50) and hung out there for a couple of hours.. there was a Buddha that was 55 ft high- apparently it is the most renowned Lama temple outside of Tibet.. It was huge-
Then we went to a Confucius temple- it was so peaceful compared to the very busy city streets- we took a cab backand Chantal left for work- I have a couple of hours before Jess gets home and we go swimming at the Embassy so I will get to work on my papers...
