Gone for a Few Days
We’re going to Beijing tonight and this means massive dosages of Starbucks coffee over the weekend.

If I were to choose which city I like best in China, I would choose Beijing. Okay, I’ve only seen Beijing, Shanghai, Xiamen, Nanjing, Dalian, Harbiin, and other small cities on the Northeastern part of China but I have made up my mind. Beijing is the best city in China but I wouldn’t want to be there during the Olympics. Why? For the very simple fact that it would be very crowded. It would be more difficult to get taxis. It would be impossible to take good photos of places since there will be tourist in every corner and in every direction. Hotels, restaurants, tours, theatres and etc would be much much more expensive.
