Our first day here was a very active one. We toured Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the Hutong (old Beijing Neighborhood), and a silk factory. We rode a ricksaw through the Hutong. We also saw an exciting show of the Beijing Acrobats. Tonight we went to a popular restaurant serving tasty Peking Duck. We have a fairly large group of families here - total of 45 people. We met a family from Marietta - the Bowens - that live close to our neighborhood who are also adopting a son.
