Forbidden Kung Fu

In Beijing I joined up with a small group tour. The tour lasted 3 weeks and took us from Beijing to St. Petersburg. There were 14 other people on the tour, plus the tour leader. It was a really fun group and I had a great time. There were lot of well-travelled people on the tour and a few had been to a lot more countries than I have.
Beijing is an interesting city to visit. There is a lot to see and do. The pollution in Beijing is really bad, though. There was a lot of smog around.
Temple of Heaven
Forbidden City
The weather was bad when we went to the Great Wall, so we couldn’t see that much of it.
I also went to a tourist kung fu acrobatics show. That was fun to watch.
Chinese Trivia of the Day: The Great Wall is simply called the long wall in Chinese.
Have fun,
Aidan.

I hope no one developed respiratory conditions while traveling through China.
I wonder how the kung fu acrobats compared to the ninjas?

The air wasn’t that bad that anyone had problems.
The ninja show I saw in Japan wasn’t as elaborate or as long as the kung fu show in China.
