Got up late and made our way into Beijing centre to meet up with the other guys from our training who are based in Beijing. We got a taxi to the local bus station to buy our travel card and put some credit on it, and then got the bus to Dongzhimen. We arrived at about 2:30 and had 4 and a half hours to kill before meeting everyone and so we decided to go to Lama Temple which looked close on the map! It wasn't quite as close as it looked and so we arrived at 3:45 which meant that it wasn't worth paying to go in since the temple closed at 4:00. Instead we decided to try out the subway which turned out to be very easy to use. We went to the main shopping center to look around, and treated ourselves to a Starbucks coffee - heaven! Afterwards we went to meet the others for dinner and then some drinks. Stayed with Rachel and Anelia tonight as our last bus back was 8:00.
