I went to Red China this weekend

[AKcharger]

I took a quick trip up to Beijing this weekend and had a great time. I didn't see any Chargers but I did do some KILLER shopping 

Here's a few shots of Ten ah Men  Square, Summer palace, Forbidden city and a Pal and I at the top of the great wall at Badaling

Did you see a Wal-Mart? It would be kind of ironic if everything there said made in USA. lol

Yes!...but we didn't stop in, no time

TK you're right about starbucks...and the Chinese don't like it being there

[bull]

How was the Chinese food there? You probably could have picked up a crapload of reproduction Charger parts like quarter panels, valances, consoles, etc., for next to nothing.

I'm actually surprised this thread was started by you rather than Shakey.

Nice pix, that wall must be pretty intense in person, I know I'd like to see it. A Starbucks doesn't surprise me, they're everywhere. Was there another Starbucks across the street from it?

Was there another Starbucks across the street from it? 

"...and if you walk to the end of the block, there sits a Starbucks. And directly across the street -- in the exact same building as that Starbucks -- there is... another Starbucks. There is a Starbucks across the street from a Starbucks! And ladies and gentlemen, THAT is the end of the universe." - Lewis Black

How long did it take you to hike to where the wall pic was taken? Looks like it goes up a couple thousand feet.

Chief I think by the looks of the shot of the Great Wall behind you, I think you can get a "pass" on your next PT test!

Yup, it was a hike took. was about 2000 feet high and took about 45 minutes. I did get a little tired but when you see 70 Y/O Chinese women coming down as your climbing up there's NO WAY I wasn't going all the way to the top 

Here's a few more, food and wall and temples and such

Unless they decide to wake up & fix their smog problem, I doubt there will be very many 70 Y/O's doing that in about 40 more years.
