Going up

At the top - it took about 40 minutes at a somewhat leisurely pace - it was hot and we were out late

The Bird's Nest at the Olympic Village

The Water Cube where Phelps made history

Saturday night we hung out at Quihai Lake in Beijing - as mentioned earlier it would be like the Minneapolis lakes with bars all around it - a couple of us took out a paddle boat - here are some pictures
