There is a whole lot of planned sight seeing the week in Beijing.  We definitely do not plan on doing ALL of it.  I'm torn about the 15th.  It's the visit to the Great Wall of China but it's an all day affair.  Of course we want to visit it but we'll play it by ear.  I will base all our decisions on Jack and how he is doing (and of course how dad and I are doing!).  If I think an 8 hour day of touring/eating will not benefit him in any way, then we will rethink our plans.  We can always go on our own just to see it, but then again dad and I are not keen on adventuring out on our own.  We'll see how things go.  We are fine sitting around the hotel napping!  LOL!  Yes I know that sounds crazy.
