There aren't really that many bicycles in Beijing!
... visiting the silk market where we picked up a couple of souvenirs, and also the cosmopolitan street of wangfujing where we witnessed the 'Mass Zumba/dancing' in the street, there was at least 300 people all dancing together. Apparently this is a regular thing and it's how the locals keep fit! I think this is definitely something London should also adopt. Next stop - Beijing train station to catch the trans Mongolian train to Ulaanbator, ...
The Wall
... that's because it is a ghost disney, with all the frames for rides and buildings built and abandoned.

Exactly what I miss being so far away from home...
what else do I miss? well, let me tell ...
Päivä 31.
... siivosti eikä vilauttele Free Tibet -t-paitoja. Turisteja paikalla riitti, vaikkakaan länsimaalaisia ei hirveästi näkynyt retkikunnan lisäksi. Kiinalaiset on kyllä innokkaita ottamaan valokuvia, ja aika usein sattui käymään niin että perämies oli just siinä tulilinjalla kun niitä kuvia otettiin.
