Beijing Amazing Race

So for our first day in the city, a group activity was planned to aid in jet lag. We were divided in groups of 4 Americans and 2 Chinese student to tackle the Beijing Race (much like the Amazing Race) We went to several different neighborhoods to complete specific task in order to gain points. All points accumulated and the winning team get a planned outing :-) We had 2 amazing student guides. They did a great job of ordering lunch for us, buying subway/bus passes for us and taking us to all the locations in the Race. We had a great day!! Around 2:00, I was ready to CRASH. SUPER tired!! We made it back to the hotel at 5:00 and we were in bed by 6:00. Amazingly we slept until the alarm went off the next morning!! Now we feel pretty much adjusted to the time change. Amazing!! Here are several pictures from our day.
