Hello from China!

I made it to China! First, I had an eventful week in Korea with nuclear bombs, missiles, and presidential funerals. It was very exciting, but I am glad to finally be in China.
The new Beijing airport is incredible. You will really enjoy it. However, they are very concerned about swine flu. Health officials checked the temperatures of every person on the plane before they would let us disembark. Then, our temperatures were checked two more times before we made it through customs. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.
The weather in Beijing is incredible. I have never seen such blue skies in Beijing. I hope it continues in the next few weeks. I have already eaten some wonderful food and enjoyed walking around the streets of the city. Today I went to a Taoist temple and tomorrow I am going to a Tibetan Buddhist temple. I will keep you posted in the days to come as time allows.
See you all soon!
