We had a great time at the Forbidden City--walked our feet off! It is huge! We walked along Tianammen (sp?)Square and paid our respects to Chairman Mao. The Forbidden City consists of hundreds of buildings. You will only see a few in our pics, but they are all decorated pretty much the same way. Each building has a significance, which our guide explained, but my retention is very low right now--lol. We went here yesterday (Saturday), then took a hutong tour, ate lunch (all the food is fantastic!), then to the silk factory, and lastly to an acrobatic show and dinner. Today is the Great Wall, jade factory, Olympic sites, and kung fu show. And tomorrow (Monday) we are off the Nanchang to get our girl!!!
