China Highlights
So I've been a major slacker for the past month. I'd like to blame it on intensives. I've been working mornings and afternoons. I've been getting off early on Tuesdays and Thursdays but I'd have to go to taekwondo for an hour and a half. So I've been busy and exhausted these past few weeks. Fraser has been great. He's been cleaning my apartment and helping me out so I won't get stressed out. Anyway here are some photos from our China trip. I'll post some videos soon of me and Fraser on the Great Wall. They're funny.
Me standing near one of the gates in Tiananmen Square
A clock counting down to the Olympics in front of a museum

Some parts of Beijing were surprisingly green
Ming Tombs
My pose on the Great Wall. It was cool but very misty.
It's so high!!

Really neat flower tea

Look mom! I'm a panda! (The hat was a present from Fraser)
Nasty street food. Yup that's a centipede on a stick.
