The flight from UB was cool. Only a hand full of passengers.
And the views of the steppes were amazing. And then they ended abruptly. One minute you a looking at snow and low peaks, the next you are over a plain with no snow. Literally a step down.
We crossed the Great Wall and it was amazingly clearly well defined against the mountains. Sorry about the poor quality of the picture. There was a haze or it might have been just the dirty window!!! It wasn't exactly a new aircraft.
This is Beijing. A city. Much like any other. We spent an enjoyable couple of hours in the Silk Market where Gek got collared by a very effective sales girl. Let us just say, we came out with more than we went in with and leave it at that!!!
