I Love Beijing More Than Ever
We had a great time in Xian and really enjoyed seeing the city wall and the Terra cotta warriors. It was such an amazing sight to see thousands of warriors built to protect the emperors dead body. I wonder what the people where thinking when they were building them. Then we flew to Beijing and my heart just leapt when I saw the city. It is amazing starting from the moment you step into the brand new airport they built for the Olympics. After we drove from the airport to our hotel and got checked in I was thinking "God Bless Beijing". I loved every minute of Beijing (luckily we were there for 3 1/2 days). I will be blogging more about the trip when I get home (we are leaving in 30 minutes to go to the airport) but I just wanted to let everyone know that I did enjoy China (I just enjoyed some parts more than others). I can't wait to get home and see my family but I am so grateful that my in laws gave me such an awesome life experience. I am definitely coming back to Beijing with Ryan sometime. I can't wait to see some of you when I get home.

When did you post the new pictures? They are so good. The girls are growing up so fast and so lovely!!
Wow!! What a great experience! I loved my time teaching in China and traveling around. I totally understand when you talk about everyone smoking everywhere. The spitting was another thing that always made me cringe. I look forward to hearing more about your trip, and the walk down memory lane it will bring.
You are sooo lucky Emily! What an amazing experience! I'm jealous. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
