Yeah, we made it!

Well that was alot of flying...

The Tokyo airport was cool, ever seen a solar powered  bobble head doll of a sumo wrester?  I am already regretting not buying one!  Also there, $6 showers, and private rooms for naps... if we only had more time.

Got into Beijing late, taxi driver spoke 0 english, good thing our friend Mei Lin had hooked us up with text / directions to our hotel.

Mei Lin picks us up at 8 to go meet Elsie, so off to bed we go.
