Temple of Heaven - Shopping - Farewell Dinner
Previous Day (Tianjin)		Next Day (Home)
Wednesday, June 25: Sunny this morning in Tianjin, but we left for Beijing, and on the way the sun gave way to haze and then rain. We arrived in Beijing at around noon, and went to the Temple of Heaven. Lunch followed, then a check-in at the hotel, and finally shopping in the downtown Beijing shopping area. Dinner at the hotel, and skits and awards presented by each of the buses. Tomorrow most of us leave for the airport at 8 AM ... in 24 hours or so we will be home.
