Our last sightseeing adventure before school started up again was a trip to the Beijing Zoo, which of course is famous for its giant pandas. Unfortunately, we picked a bad day to go--the days before and after were actually on the warm side--and spent most of the morning shivering in the (much-needed) rain. We saw a few fun animals, but most of them seemed to be in hiding. We'll have to go back when the weather warms up for real!
