Hey everyone, today I went with some of the Canadian teachers from BCCSC in to Beijing to play tourist. We went shopping at the market...I found two pieces of pottery for my room, a vase & something to hold my pens on my desk. The market is very large (and a bit overwhelming).

We had some lunch, then off to the Temple of Heaven. A beautiful area (covers almost 300 hectares) with temples and gardens that seem to go on forever. Locals linger in the shade, play musical instruments and sing. A great place to get away from the bustling & noisy city. :)
