Still in Beijing

We are still here, kind of stuck to this great city in this great country! But on saturday, I think we will actually manage to leave..
Not much happened since last time, every day looks a bit like the day before, but still, we are in China, Beijing, not in Olso, Norway, so I guess it is still interesting!

Since last time we have been to the Birds Nest and the other olympic arenas, great fun, it is still not opened to public, but the chinese are crazy about it, so they have but up see-through fences, so the public can see the buildings from a small distance. And they line up for familyphotographsession outside the fences and smiles like crazy, it is great! The Birds Nest was very impressive, but the svimmingarena also has something about it.. Definitely!

We have also been to an acrobatic show, that was absolutely crazy, and we loved it, they can do anything, it is so impressive!! The show was just for one hour, I wanted more so badly, just more and more! They were jumping 2 meters, 10 girls on one bike, flying in some sheets hanging from the roof, it was marvellous! I would like to see it again! And again! And so on..

A part from that we are serious students (ahem..) and do our homework every day. So the rest of the touristtraps we actually may manage to avoide!

Today we went to Silk market, crazy place! And tomorrow we are going to visit our teacher, Jerry, and make lunch or dinner or something together! Looking forward to it!

Sincerely yours;) g
