Mr.and Mrs.Lin took a trip overseas last month. They went to visit some friends in Beijing. Robert and Megan stayed in San Francisco because they had to go to school.
Mr. and Mrs.Lin had a pleasant flight to Beijing. They arrived at noon on a Monday and their friends, the Lees, met them at the airport. Their friends were very happy to see them. While the Lins collected their luggage, Mr.Lee got the car. Then they all went to the Lees' house. The Lins were very thankful that they could stay there and did not have to pay for accommodation. They talked and joked all afternoon and had a lovely dinner in a restaurant that night. Mrs.Lin thought the food in Beijing was delicious.
The next day,the Lins went sightseeing by themselves. In the morning, They took a tour of the Forbidden City. The tour guide told them many interesting stories of past emperors. Then,Mrs.Lin wanted to see an art museum. They rode bicycles to the Beijing Art Museum to experience the local transportation. After that, they met their friends for a dinner of dumplings. It was a full day of culture.
The following day, they took a taxi to the Great Wall. They walked along it for about two hours and took a lot of picture. The views were amazing! That night, they went to a Chinese opera with their friends. For the last two days, the Lins rested and caught up with their friends.
Finally,after only a few days, they had to go home. The Lins were sad to leave so soon, but they had to get back to work and their children and their jobs. They had a wonderful time in Beijing.
