Beijing Olympics

8-8-8 is the start of the Beijing Olympics. How exciting! China has moved mountains to make everything nice for everyone who comes. The Chinese government and people have made sure that everything will go well and that everyone will have a special time.

I remember when my husband and I visited China in September of 1993 for 18 days on an Ocean Pacific tour around China that ended in Hong Kong. It was wonderful to see China and to learn about the country. My husband had always wanted to visit China and walk on the Great Wall so we did. We had a wonderful time and I will never forget it.

At the time when we visited China, they were already building freeways and highrise hotels to get ready for the Olympics.

To everyone who has the opportunity to see China at the Beijing Olympics............have a good time, relax, be grateful for the opportunity to visit China, enjoy all the Olympic events, and show respect to the Chinese people who have worked so hard to make it so nice for you.
