BNU Campus, Olympic park, Noodles, and more McDonald's

Beijing, China

So yesterday I had exams and afterwards our whole class went to eat with our teachers! It was cool.

After lunch I went with a bunch of EAP kids to xi dan 西單, where I spent too much moneys and walked around for about forever. and later that night, we had an interesting clubbing adventure. Today I went to the Olympic park and a shopping place called 五道口. ...Walked way too much and tomorrow I'm going to 王府井商業街。

and..

I love Mcdonald's here!! They have crispy coconut and taro pie!

Are those Chips Ahoy with orange bits in them?!

Chinese people like fruit + chocolate. It's weird that it hasn't taken off over here. I think that stuff's pretty good.

I also like how in that last Water Cube pic, you can see some other guy taking a pic of his son in front of the Water Cube. It's like a meta-tourist pic - deep stuff :P

haha it seems like you go to McDonalds in China more than you do in America =P
what exactly is the water cube supposed to be? is it just an attraction or is it a building? and your school is just one building? it looks really nice though =]
