beijing here we are....

it's morning in beijing.. Had a good night's sleep and we are off later to the zoo and summer palace. It's very polluted here. Finding it hard to breathe, and need my pumps...We are having peking duck for supper, which should be an experience.
There is an united nations conference in this hotel and we are seing people from every country of the u.n.
Went to the market last night to pick up some water. What an experience. There are thousands of people in the store, chickens laying on the table in the aisle. Chickens with the head and feet still attached. You pick one and the butcher cuts it up for you then and there. They have every product you could want but I can't read any of this....
We will post again later.
