Yesterday and today we traveled on airplanes that were very long flights to get to China (Chicago -> San Francisco -> Beijing). We saw the golden gate bridge. On the flight with the 747 we saw icebergs in Alaska and a city down below us in Russia. We flew over a really cool place in the ocean where there were about a 100 MILLION icebergs. We also went over the Bering straits. On the airplane we met someone who would be running in the great wall marathon, actually on the great wall!
It was hard to sleep because my ears kept popping because of the altitude.
After we landed, we met our guide and drove to the hotel. There were big city buses that had mirrors on the ends of poles. We called them "slug buses" because they looked like slugs.
We ate at the Kentucky Fried Chicken, which was next to the Pizza Hut and the Starbucks. We are very jet-lagged.
At the hotel you can't drink the water, or even brush your teeth in it.
Tomorrow we are going to the aquarium. 5 days till we adopt Mari!
