Beautiful Beijing Snowy Day

4 hour delay in Changsha saw us arrive in Beijing eventually, and totally knackered!  The city like the rest of China was shrouded in the thickest of thick fogs, all very claustrophobic!  We unpacked, had dinner in one of the Hotel Restaurants then settled in our room for the night. Deb and Sen crashed out early I managed to get a video feed of the Grand Slam Match followed by Swansea's hammering of Fulham!  A great way to end a long and tiring day.

This morning we awoke to a lovely clear blue sky day and about 3 inches of snow, which either melted or had been cleaned away by the army of street cleaners that fill the city streets, by the time we had finished breakfast (late) and got outside.


We took a walk to Tienanmen Square and the outside of the Forbidden City, Sennen proving to be as big a photographic subject as the main sites!

A quick swim in the pool now, then off for dinner and a family massage at a friend's spa.

Tidy!!!!
