China 5

These are all from our last day in China, Friday. Jon went to the Temple of Heaven (while I shopped at the Pearl Market), we met up for lunch and then all went to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. They're kind of out of order.....
Forbidden City- 9 is considered a perfect number,
the doors all had knobs, 9 across and 9 down.

Oops... this was Thursday night! After dinner. Lots of the students we saw
took pictures like this, it's not the peace sign, it means "happy"
Also, when you take pictures you can say, "E, Er, San... Qiezi"
Which is really 1, 2, 3... eggplant, but it is the "chee" sound, like we say "cheese"
