10 December 2006 | China, Beijing
The first ten days of this month I spent in Beijing. I went there by train. Luckily I was able to change my no-seat-ticket into a hard-sleeper-ticket, I wouldn’t have beard it if I had to stand for 12 whole hours. Once I arrived, the first thing I noticed was that the weather was colder than I was used to in Wuxi. I immediately bought a train ticket back to Wuxi, because I was afraid that they would be sold out if I would try to buy one later. My parents also came to China and were waiting for me at Beijing Station. It was really weird to see them again. First I had breakfast with them at a famous Dim Sum restaurant near Yonghegong, after that I went to Peking University (PKU) to check in for my hotelroom. At the check-in desk I found out that I left my passport in Wuxi, I was really panicking, I even called Menita and a former teacher of PKU to help me out. In the end Kanako came with whom I would share my hotelroom and thanks to her I was able to move to my hotelroom (illegally). That evening I met my parents again, they went to a photostudio and wanted me to select some pictures of them with them. Later we went to a restaurant to have Peking duck. After dinner I went to their luxurious hotel and stayed there for one night.
The next day I went to my hotelroom in PKU again. In the evening I had dinner with Lide, Kingfo, Svetlana and David in a Taiwanese restaurant. After that we went out bowling. During my time in Beijing I spent my days with eating, karaoke, buying a Sony Playstation Portable and visiting people. I met with lots of people among which are: Hiro, Kanako, Kingfo, David, Lide, Menita, Svetlana, Steven and Zhang Qiong.
My last evening in Beijing I went to the ambassador’s house to have a Sinterklaas-party. At that party I saw lots of other familiar faces, many students of Leiden University were present at that party. 10 December I left Beijing with Steven.
(Due to a deadline for my thesis and Shunlai’s arrival in Wuxi, I wasn’t really able to write an elaborate story about Beijing… sorry guys, I’ll make it up to you next time)
