I just didn't think about it when i booked my tickets. I was also lucky to get into the country because I travelled at the height of the swine flu hysteria, when all passengers arriving in China were being tested for signs of a fever - and quarantined automatically for 7 days if they had so much as a sniffle or hot forehead.<br />Anyway, I made it in and had Saturday and Sunday to wander round a drizzly Beijing, including a trip out to my favourite temple, Jietai Si. I satyed at the Downtown Hostel on Nanluogu Xiang - excellent value, friendly service and right in the middle of the bar district. Highly recommended. (And you can book online).<br />Here's a few of the snaps I took with my Nikon 35Ti and the Leica R7, both mostly using Kodak Ektachrome slide film.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/10816453@N00/3667345857/" title="Beijing Capital Airport by jiulong, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2433/3667345857_e6564258fa.jpg" width="298" height="500" alt="Beijing Capital Airport" /></a><br />The new Beijing airport: nice building and everything runs smoothly, but you can't buy anything to read in English!
