I'm having a good time in Beijing. Beijing is beautiful city with a lot of parks, new buildings and big stores.

Bill's family took me to the Great Wall, Tian'anmen Square the Summer Palace(颐和园). They took me to eat at some famous (restaurant). I had Beijing roast duck, hot pot and many kinds of dishes. They (be) delicious. I'd like to learn some Chinese and I can (speak) a little Chinese now. Bill's dad (buy) me some Chinese storybooks and an English-Chinese dictionary. Now, I (read) the books. They are interesting and I love them very much.

Tomorrow I'm going to Bill's school to meet (he) teachers and classmates. I want (make) more friends in China. I'm sure it'll be an exciting trip.

Some Travel Information

We had an awful school trip last week. Some students were late. Then we waited half an hour for the school bus, but it didn't arrive. Finally, our teacher took us to take the subway. It took over an hour. Then we walked a long way. When we arrived at the zoo, it was already 12:00. We were all tired and hungry. We wanted to see pandas, but there weren't any. There were some really smart dolphins, but we didn't see the show because we arrived too late. We forgot our cameras, so we couldn't take any photos. Then it started to rain, and no one had an umbrella. We didn't see many animals because of the rain. So we went for lunch. We ate hamburgers. My friends also had some ice-cream. But I didn't have any, because I don't like it. I wanted French fries, but there weren't any in the shop. They were sold out! Finally we went back to school. We were wet, tired and stressed out. I didn't enjoy my school trip at all.
