A complete day off in sub-zero Beijing. We picked the visa up yesterday, so today has up till now only been about reviewing Chinese and shopping for Bella.
She needed a new shirt, but when we passed a foreign language bookstore we also bought a couple of new Chinese books. I found a book with easy stories, she found a new textbook.
We also visited a Chinese restaurant, which was nice because of the prices. Outside was a menu, that we could read, offering prices of around 12 yuan. Then we went inside and the people of the restaurant gave us a menu in English but with everything double the price. When we asked about it, they quickly gave us their Chinese-language menu with the prices lower again.
Must have been a holdover from the Olympics.
