Friday 7th October




I think I had food poisoning from the Peking duck last night as I was really ill all night and then I had to Check out of the hostel at 7am to get a taxi to the airport. I pretty much slept through the flight and landed in Beijing at 12pm. I got a taxi back to my apartment and had to heave my suitcase up 4 flights of stairs and went straight back to bed and slept until 5pm.

I met up with Doreenda and Amanda at 7pm and we got a taxi into Beijing to meet Kristen for Tapas at a Spanish restaurant she had found. The food was really good and I tried shrimp and ox tail for the first time (and liked them both). There were two men on the stage with guitars playing Spanish music which gave a really nice atmosphere and the restaurant had a real traditional Spanish feel. After the meal we went out for cocktails and it was a nice chilled evening catching up with the girls.
