Skype
call received from Belle & Nadine on Saturday 28th July at about 1700 hours
UK time (around Midnight in Beijing)...
They
had a gruelling train journey from UB, Mongolia, arriving after some 29 hours.
They are settled in their hotel & getting to grip with a 37c daytime temperature
with a very humid & smoggy environment...
During
their stay in China they will have trouble reaching the outside world through
Facebook & the blog (blocked sites in China) but will attempt occasional
updates through Hotmail, which they hope will work. So, if there aren't many of the usual updates
that's the reason...
They
are both in good health & looking forward to playing the tourists in &
around Beijing...
They
are due to arrive back in the UK on Sunday 12th August, flying back from
Beijing...
