CHINA...WE ARE HERE...ARE U READY?




Hmmmm, me so tired. We have arrived in China and its so bloody hot and humid. Today we went to SOHO district and had a quick look around. Then we went to the Athletes Village so I could get my accreditation validated. From there is was off to Sizzler....yeah I know....but I was not in the mood for Dog Soup just yet and I did make a healthy meal choice so it was not all that bad. Pepsi Max is so hard to find in Beijing at the moment cause Coke is the major sponsor.

The smog is aweful today; add the heat and it feels like a dirty sauna......all the time. In some cases you cannot see to the end of a street or even the top of a building. When I look out our 5 Star hotel (Im a details person) I can barely see the hotel next to us.

I cant wait til I adjust to this weather. Did I mention is so bloody hot.......


Stay tuned for more fun and excitement live (but reported when I feel like it) from downtown Beijing.................
