The flight wasn't too bad since I slept a lot. My hotel is near Tiananmen square, so I took the Beijing subway right to it. The room is much fancier than I thought it would be!
TianAnmen square: each day they raise the flag at sunrise. Hundreds of Chinese tourists are there to watch. A dessert I saw many people eating: fruit on a stick, coated in sweet icing. Later, I got one with tomato.
The Forbidden City- a palace in the middle of Beijing. It's like a big museum on the inside and outside. The last picture is torwards a hill outside the palace.
The Summer Palace- very beautiful grounds and buildings. Many buildings are built on a rocky hill with long views of Beijing on one side and a lake on the other side.
The Temple of Heaven- a temple for praying for good harvests. The surrounding park is very beautiful and many people practice Tai Chi here.
The final keynote of the conference.
 Stuck in Beijing. Nothing to do :-( |  Stuck in Newark. Time for a swim! |
Getting so big!
Mommy, daddy, and Charlotte go for a walk.
Tummy time smiles!
This is what is keeping us busy.
