Beijing Day 1

 We left for our first China vacation on Wednesday May 2, 2012.  We headed to Beijing.  The kids all did great on the plane, it was only a 2 hour flight.  Hannah and Ben slept the whole time and Kenzie played her leap pad!  We had a tour guide so they met us at the airport.
 After leaving the airport we headed straight to Tiananmen Square.  Here is Hannah with her China flag!

 Then we went to The Forbidden City (which is right next to Tiananmen Square).

 As you can see it was very busy (like everywhere in China)

 After we left The Forbidden City we went to The Temple of Heaven
Our cousin Kyleigh who is in Kindergarten in Michigan sent us her Flat Stanley to visit so we took him on vacation with us!
