Internet sucks in China

So I swear I have tried to post before this, but internet connection has been crappy in the past two cities, and now that we're in Beijing, it costs money to use the internet! So - quick little update!  Wuhan? Nice hotel....not much else to do.  That was our relax and sleep in and go to starbucks city.  Fuzhou? Beautiful weather, BEAUTIFUL theatre (our best by far), and dairy queen.  I wore sundresses. I sunbathed on the deck of the dairy queen.  It was heaven.  Now we are in Beijing and I literally think that this city secretly relocated itself to the frozen tundra.  Shockingly cold.  But so far, lots and lots of fun.  The first night we got in late and were CRAVING american food.  Hardrock Cafe was our dinner joint of choice.  We bought the place out.  I had a salad, a veggie burger, macaroni and cheese, and split fries with rach.  It felt so so good.  We were exhausted and crashed early that night.  The next morning we had hotel breakfast (best yet!) with waffles and blueberry pancakes and PRUNES! Then we headed to Tianemin (sp?) Square and the Forbidden City. A beautiful, sunny, freezing day.  Cool sites and beautiful views.  Had famous Beijing Peking Duck for dinner at Da Dong.  It's apparently THE place to have the duck (: It was delicious! And they made us mojito's for 30 yuan.  Headed back to the hotel and then headed back out to bar street, where the girls got separated from the boys accidentally in the cab ride and the evening turned into girls night, which was fine and dandy.  More descriptive details to follow! Love!
