Impressions Inn

A family run business in the north of Beijing called Impressions Inn.
We had a de-brief from our Tour leader Penny.
Then we got our keys and got buddy'd up and had an hour to burn
So we went to the bar, and tried Tsingtao , it is home brewed Chinese beer and very tasty and cheap!
We got waited on for a huge amazing buffet which included an BBQ ,
there was noodles, rice, kebabs, sweet and sour pork and chicken, boiled and stir fry veg , there was everything and way too much!
After everyone stuffed there faces after a long day travelling , we had a nice few hours chilling in front of a huge man made bon fire , with some nasty music collection which included Justin Beiber... but of course more Tsingtao .
We are taking our first steps on the wall tomorrow , we are performing the Jinshanling , a 12 km challenge loop .
Leaving at 7:30 , got my alarm set for 6:30.
Im going to hit the hay , has been a long first day , but has been incredible.
Im in for a special trip if this is just the beginning.

Promise to upload pictures soon, next stop The Great Wall of China!!Read more
