Merry China-Mas! Part 1

We decided to cross China off our bucket list during Christmas! My mom and dad made the trek to come and visit the chilly country with us! The weather was extremely crisp but it was so great to see them and get to experience another country alongside such friends!  The people of China are VERY different than Koreans.  We learned two key elements while traveling in China: 1.  We speak more Korean than what we originally thought. 2.  It did us no good while traveling in China.


The "Rebecca" store.  They sold hats. 


 The Forbidden City - Male Lion symbolizing the emperor

 I was attempting to take a picture

 Like this one so you could see the pretty ceiling...

Warming up with some tea







 Daddy's face describes the weather perfectly! 
Surprisingly chilly! 




It's a tree growing out of the side of a massive rock with a hiding 
temple on top.  Pretty cool!
