Beijing

So here is the delayed update of my trip to Beijing. The plane ride to Beijing took about 3 hours and the ride there was not pleasant at all. The turbulence was crazy and the pilot was crazy. Chinese people should not be allowed to pilot aircrafts. The food there was not as good as I've expected. But overall, it was a pretty good trip and I learned about the chinese history.

I finally found one, this one was alot cleaner then I've expected. I also found one that was all stainless steel but couldn't take a picture of it.
