My China Diary Series: Day 2

My China Diary Series: Day 2

We went out for the absolute whole day. First after breakfast we went to the Forbidden City. We walked for like totally hours larhhh. It was so darn big, at first I thought we were going to be walking in one area only but we went to so many places and all the buildings look so similar I kept getting confused where we were. Finally, FINALLY, we could go off. But the bad thing is that we had to walk and walk along Tiananmen Square THEN we could go on the bus. Our feet were practically dead when we finally sat down. Haiyah. Then we went to eat lunch. In the itinerary, it says that we were supposed to have the Beijing Duck Banquet on this day for lunch, but the duck was not killed yet so we didn't have it. Instead we had lots of dumplings. 10 plates of different types of dumplings. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? 10 different types on 10 different plates. It's like, they kept coming and coming continuously, we didn't know when it was going to stop. As in the dumplings stop coming. Yeah, so we had a dumpling lunch. After lunch, we went to the Temple of Heaven. It was really breezy over there and legend says that if you make a wish on top of the whatever tower or something it will come true. But nobody wanted to make a wish. So we just enjoyed the picturesque scenery..blah. Then we watched a spectacular Chinese Acrobatics Show. They screwed up once. They were going to do this super friggin difficult acrobatic act, then suddenly everybody tumbled down. LOL. Ok.
