First we went to the Temple of Heaven, which was absolutely gorgeous.And then we went to Tiananmen Square and then on through to the Forbidden City. It was amazing! I'm glad that it is no longer forbidden. :)
After that we went to Wangfujing Street and walked all around and then had dinner from some of the street vendor people, and I ate fried scorpions!! They tasted pretty good actually, but it was kinda gross feeling the legs all crunching around in my mouth.
Beijing is such a busy, incredible, crazy, and fast-paced city! I really think that I would like to stay here for much longer, especially considering that everything is so inexpensive and I am starting to learn some Chinese!
OK, it's getting really late. Tomorrow morning we go again to the Haidian Church, which I am very excited about.
I have much more to say and about 800 more pictures to upload, but for now, I'm going to bed!
Goodnight and I love you all!

You're amazing. I just love your adventurous spirit, and how you pour yourself whole-heartedly into whatever event the Lord lays in your path.
Scorpions, and all!
