It's Roz now, but you would probably notice anyway through the change in writing style. The computers here re really slow, so it's taken practically all day to upload photos! It is raining and cold outside though, so not a great waste.
Anyway, when we were in Beijing we met up with Ginny, who we'd met in Shanghai when we went out to lunch with Stephanie from the dematic office. She lives in BJ, but she travels a lot with her work (she's a bit like Dad in the dematic company I think) which is why she was in Shanghai. She took us out to lunch, where Nick ate fish eye and offal (I couldn't do it - I tried but had to spit it out) and then we went to the forbidden city. She then took us shopping, and bought me two lovely pairs of earrings, and I bought a dress. She then took us to an authentic chinese teahouse. The teahouse is a place for people to meet in the evening - a bit like a pub but no alcohol and more elegant. I had white tea; Nick had jasmine tea (that's the tea in the photo) and Ginny had chrysanthamum tea. There was also a shadow puppet play in the background. After the teahouse we went out to a couple of bars.
