Joyeuse fête de l'amour!

My office

Here's the view from my office.

I think we were flying over Alaska.

Very nice.

Cheers

Beijing, Pekin

Woop Woop!!

Beijing Baby!

Yep, that's right!

There's was 2 opening for Beijing and while texting my friend asking her if she wanted to do it with me, work was calling me. They offered me a Shanghai! And yes I wanted to take it but I ask Elisabeth (on the other end of the line) if Kim and I could get the Beijing and she said yes!!

Thank you Elizabeth! 

So yeah, we basically had less then 3 hours to get ready.

Pack my stuff and jumped in the cab.

 The flight, well you know, 13h flight that's long...

But over all, it went well!

Nice crew! and I was glad that Kim accepted to come along!

We got there, tired slept in the shuttle.

Kim and I decided to stay in and dine in the hotel restaurant.

Mistake mistake... we opted for the buffet... we lots our money.

Well, let me put it that way.

I'm used to the "American" version of Chinese food, so for me that food was lacking of taste.

Anyhow.

The next day, 8 o'clock sharp, we, the crew, were all downstairs ready to go shopping.

jump in cabs to the Pearl Market.

Oh my gosh, let me tell you, IT'S RIDICULOUSLY CHEAP!

What! For real.

Ok, maybe it's not the real deal but close to it at a none sense price.

I didn't buy much because I had no needs.

You should have seen the other ladies with there luggage or bags almost as big as a hockey bag...

That's serious business and I'm sure they didn't spend more then $150.

Anyways, next time I go, because I will go back!!! I'll make a list and buy my stuff there.

Oh, the other thing, oh boy, it was super cold.

What!

Too cold, colder then Montreal.

I was in shock, anyways.

Over all, great experience!

And I can't wait for my next oversea destination.
