Six days in Beijing and one day in Tianjin with son

[amanda1969]

Husband suggested me that being a Chinese, son should travel to Bejing. So son and I took a trip from Mar. 19 until Mar. 26. This has been my fifth time to travel in Beijing since last year. But this time only son and me to take a trip without my husband at my side. We do hope we 3 people will travel together as one family very soon !

Thanks, Amando, they are nice pictures. Your son is handsome. I miss China so much, good news is I will visit China this summer...

Great pics Amanda! And what a handsome boy you've got. Our trip to Beijing is the most memorable of my life. Can't wait to go back.

Thanks for sharing the wonderful pics, Amanda. It looks like you and your son had a great time.

[Guest ShaQuaNew]

Nice pics. I see you made it to the crazy food market in downtown Beijing. Did you try any bugs, scorpions or starfish....

 

It also looks like they're still working on the bridge at the entrance to the forbidden city. Did you go to the great wall location nearby the city? It looked very busy there. How was it?
