This was probably the most vile thing i’ve drunk in a long time. Green Tea Sprite with Lemon. Wrong!

Though Marcus would probably dig it. :)

Beijing Olympic Village

Author: Tom  |  Category: Life

Already two years after Beijing hosted the 2008 olympics and the Olympic village is still a huge tourist trap. especially for domestic tourists with it on the ‘must visit’ list.

The birds nest wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. From a distance, it looks cool, but the closer you get it doesn’t seem much. It wasn’t till we got inside and up to the third level that you could experience it.

By the way, as i’m sure the photos below will show – pollution in Beijing is horrible.

The stadium recently held some snow events for Beijings residents, hence the snow inside. This dude didn’t seem too impressed about having to stand in the cold.

Did I mention that Beijing is cold?

Photo taken yesterday at the Emporers Back Yard (the cool lake area).

Into march and the lake is still half frozen. Damn cold I tell you!
