Hi,
From reading the other messages seems we need to say Happy Birthday, Leighton.
Your first day out in Beijing has many familiar sounding details. The fact that you had Chinese people in your personal space a lot is something we certainly experienced. It's such a contrast to how they treat each other. Westerners are "entitled" to a completely different approach.
Keep blogging. Mary

Hi there,
Happy birthday to you Leighton!! Understood from Silvie that text messages are some how not coming through yet....
So cool to read about your experiences and to see the pictures (except the Chinese men with their rolled-up shirts....you should not scare a pregnant woman).
