aaron's brother marcus's friend Linnea from Sweeden is visiting us this week. yesterday we went to tian an' men square. there are always guards marching around.
we did lots of jumping.
we climbed a hill in the very center of the city. it has the best panoramic view of beijing.
aaron and linnea
down the hill
more jumping
exploring a side street.
we passed a large homing pigeon coop on top of one house and people cooking dinner in a public restroom. people cook everywhere. in shops, along side of the road. this was the first time i'd seen someone cooking in a restroom, but i think it was one of the cleaners, and if that's where you spend all your time, i guess it makes sense to cook and eat there too.
trying to warm up with gelatinous corn and egg soup. i was happier than i look.
though probably not this happy.
spicy red peppers! they're in many of the dishes; i've never found chinese food this spicy back home. mmm.
little fish with giant balloons for eyes. really.
