The hotel has a beautiful lobby, but service is a little on the skimpy side. It was hard for my friend to get service in the lobby lounge. The hotel was packed during spring festival, so by the itme we checked in, there were no rollaway beds available and we had to settle for a pallet made from some douve' s for one of us to sleep on. The western restaurant was quite good and the breakfast Buffet was as well. Still need to teach people in China how to make coffee. it's very strong and bitter.

IT'S A LONG WAY TO MUTIANYU
I forgot how to spell TIPARARI. Anyway we're off to visit the Great Wall of China. I was wrong about our visit to the Jade Factory, we did that this morning on our way to the Wall.

My First Day
Today was amazing! We started with a buffet breakfast, which was rediculously large. We met up with our tour guide Jojo and took a bus to the Forbidden City. We started in the east and worked our way to the main parts and back out. We learned so much from Jojo that made it worthwhile; like the reason red and yellow are royal colors is because they …
The Great Wall
Today was another awesome day. We began our day at the jade factory, where we learned about the different type of jade, jadite being the stronger of the two. We learned how jade is a growing stone, and the color changes with the owner and may even help circulation. I ended up getting a jade bracelet, really expensive, but I figure I will be wearing …
Summer Palace
Another great day. I must say I love everything I have learned about Chinese culture so far. For example, I love how everything is symbolic; for example the phoenix represents the yang or woman side while the dragon is the yin or male, together creating harmony. (I bought some phoenix earrings!!!) And the lion is power, and so on. I elso enjoy the …
