Bits n' Pieces of Beijing

During our stay in Beijing, we decided to opt out of most excursions.  We went to the Beijing Zoo (because Malia really wanted to go), went to the Silk Factory, and did some shopping.  I really wanted to go to the Great Wall again, but it made for a very long day and we were all exhausted!

Raina preferred to be in our room and loved playing with empty water bottles.

The Silk Factory...fascinating!

Good-bye China party.  Here I am visiting with Yulin from FOI.

The magician and one of the kids...gotta love her expression
