Summer Palace

Day 2 - 24 Aug

sunny 27 °C

Hello,
Todays update.... Si overzealously set the alarm for 7.30 - lovely, i think he managed to get me out of bed nearly an hour later : ) ha ha, so we set off to the Summer Palace. About 1 hr on a bus out of Beijing - we were glad of the phrase book! but only 8p each way. the Summer Palace was gorgeous and we rented a little boat out on the lake. Just pottered about the pagodas etc except the main one was closed for refurbishment. Called in at Carrefour on the way bk - Si needed fed, so we have croissants for the next few mornings.

Just off for Beijing Duck now - Si's very excited. Think we have 90 photos already : )
