Arrival in Beijing
We arrived in Bejing at 9:30 on Friday night, after being awake for over 24 hours!!!! We were very tired and glad to get to our hotel. The temperature was about 29 degreesand was misting rain.... pretty miserable. We are up this morning to go to our orienation class and then if the weather holds we will be going to the Temple ofHeaven and Tienamen(sp?) Square. The hotel is very modern and very nice. Although it has every mondern convenience,Tommy and I couldn't figure out how to get the lights in the room to stay on.There was a card swiper like what was on the door that was located on the wall andwe finally figured that we had to leave the card in the swiper to keep them on....What a bunch of Arkansans!!!!! Hopefully in the days to come we will be able toput photos on the blog spot, but we just don't have the time today or tomorrow.
