Hutong

We then went to Hutong which is the old part of Beijing. We were there the first day on our own.

We took a rickshaw around. Our driver made fun of my hairy arms. I made fun of his hairless chest. All with no spoke words. It was really funny.

We went to a local home and got a chance to go through a traditional home. The women who lived there was great. Very tiny with nothing at all. Very simple.

I got some amazing photos I can't wait to share. Two men were playing Chinese checkers and I was able to photograph them.

It was a wonderful experience. Our Rickshaw driver dodged traffic as Johanne screamed and gasped. I was brave and nearly shit myself. One Rickshaw hit a car or so it looked. It's crazy from what we are used to.
