Teachers in Beijing

A great time to visit the Olympics is after the Olympics.

My plane flight was $6,000 round trip.  My hotel is $375.00 per night.  The tickets to the games range from $50.00 to $800.00.  The plane ride is very long.  I hope you are good at sleeping in the plane.  All I can say is to bring a good book and an iPod loaded with great music. 

Once you arrive in Beijing you will see an airport that you won’t believe.  It could possible be one of the best airports in the world.   I am going to go out on a limb; it is the greatest airport in the world.  

The good news is that lots of signs are in English and lots of people speak English.  You will bump into many people who speak English.

The food is great.  Prices are not too bad, in most places and you don’t have to worry about places closing too early.

Two weeks is a long time to spend at the Olympics.  However, the time flies when you are having a great time.

We bumped into a group of school teachers from the United States and England and all decided to visit some school in China.
