Beijing, China Jan 19, 2009 We arrived in Beijing on Saturday (17th) & were hit by a temp of -10 so had to keep our coold gear firmly in place. We visited the forbidden city on Saturday & the great wall yesterday. We're finding it hard getting a ticket out of Beijing to to their new year so I hope we don't get stranded.
