Hi everyone
What a day - we spent the morning at the silk market trying to bargain our way to some great deals - we aren't sure if we actually got them however our bags will definitely be fuller on the way home. The experience is hard to describe however when the vendors see westerners - the cries of "hey lady" and "you the boss" were all we could hear - Mike of course loved the attention however that is certainly not shopping for the faint of heart - we were exhausted after a couple of hours.
We are off to Nanning tomorrow so not sure when we will get to post again - here are some additonal pictures....it is an amazing scene of new world and old world colliding here in Beijing -
Max and Riley - 3 days down - 13 more to go! We know that you are in good hands!

I loved the silk market. So different than when we were there 3 years ago. We only had a short time to shop. Wish we had more. Sounds like you all had a blast!
