We went to Tiananmen and the forbidden today for a look around. It's been a log time since we were there. In the old days we used to go down there to fly kites but nothing so frivolous is allowed now.

We went to see Mao's body a mouldering in the grave but I was not allowed in with my camera and hiroe was not allowed in with here bag. The boys went in. I was quite annoyed so here is a picture from the internet so you all know what it looks like.

The city was good, the last time we went it was snowing. That was around 2004. I made a movie of the event so please grab your popcorn and enjoy.
