Zoe and Ed's Travels
Hi. We are in Beijing!
We got the train on Thursday. It took a day and a half from Ulaan Baatar, but the border crossing was much easier than getting into Mongolia. On the way we passed through the Gobi desert, and also saw the Great Wall - photos coming shortly.
We have been taking it easy, and sharpening our bargaining skills at the shops. They know how to drive a hard bargain here, but we still managed to snap up a few things.
Food has been good including a fast food noodle place, which was really cheap (although at out hostel there was a strange, and expensive, pizza buffet which didn't include any pizza!).
We're going to start looking at proper sights soon, but we're taking it slowly for the time being.
