The Keef's go to Beijing, China
Leaving Incheon Int'l (Seoul) to start our trip to China. I've just delivered a stirring speech on the need to stay behind Dad and to always know where your passport is.
Some street scenes in Beijing. Some parts modern--some not so. The street to the right is typical--a mix of small dangerous cars, deisel and electric buses, bicycles, and people on foot.
Here we are at the Temple of Heaven and Earth. Lots of kites here...most were being flown by adults.
A student approached Nic to try out his English, making small talk about this site and asking her about her school situation.
They thought they were keeping an eye on me--little did they know I had my reversible camera on THEM.
Here we see some more kites on Tiennemen Square
Beth in front of Chairman Mao's portrait painted on the outside of the Forbidden City, facing Tiennemen Square.
Daniel in front of Mao's Mauseleum on Tiennemen Sq. Those soldiers uniforms fit about like Daniel's hoody.
The Congress of the People's Communist Party--on Tiennemen Sq
Enjoying an acrobatic show one evening in Beijing...
Just a mid-tour nose hair check.
