Beijing is an amazing, huge, busy, active, changing, evolving maze of people, places, history and growing future. The Olympics were hosted with energy and success. We were lucky to be guests of Liz's friends...comfortable and relaxed...and had a chance to travel to Samatai to walk the Great Wall. Our taxi driver took us to his brother's home nearby where we shared several cups of tea and were given some of the largess from their garden...like people everywhere, the Chinese we met are open and generous, friendly and welcoming. I think having the cutest baby in the world along does help break a great deal of ice!
