Bear Returns from China

Well, Bear had a wonderful trip to China. It is the most incredible place and the people are wonderful. I'd like to say that we were too busy to write, but the truth is, we couldn't access any social sites in China. They were blocked. We were very busy also and trying to communicate with the world outside of China wasn't an easy thing to do.

This is the 777 that we flew on leaving Chicago on July 15, 2009 at 1:05 pm CT Arrival at Beijing Airport July 16, 2009 at 9:30pm After a 14 hour flight from Chicago to Tokyo, we flew from Japan to Beijing which was another 4 hours.
Our arrival at Beijing airport. This was an amazingly beautiful airport. These welcome signs were in the languages of nations that participated in the Olympics.

Loading up the bus. There were 13 of us on this tour and it was fantastic to have such a small group.
I will continue to post pictures and a few notes on our trip here for anyone interested and will add to Bear's adventures when we leave for San Juan, Puerto Rico in Sept.
