Today was a pretty standard tourist day in a big city with a large tour group visiting historic sites. I'll bet that sounds exciting. First Tiananmen Square which is big (largest public square in the world) and crowded, but not very exciting:
We had a good tour guide and for the first time we used modern technology - we each had a receiver with an earpiece and the guide used a microphone and a transmitter so we could easily hear her over the noise of the crowd.
The Forbidden City had some interesting architecture.
Afterward we got to go off and have lunch on our own. We found a great place and had some interesting dishes like honey fried anchovies:
