It's been a week since I left Beijing (and updated this blog) and arrived in Xi'an. Here's a very brief look into what my last two days in Beijing were like:
On my first full day in Beijing, The Alliance staff gave us a health and safety briefing followed by a tour of the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. Then we went to a street that is known for selling exotic foods like starfish, seahorses, and scorpions to name a few.
The next day we took a bicycle rickshaw through a traditional Hutong (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutong) and ate a meal that one of the locals cooked for us! Then we needed to go to the train station to get on our overnight train that would take us to Xi'an.
