I've just learned that ALL of my photos and videos from ALL of my travels in 2012 are now in a much better place (as I hope). You may judge and I'll respect that because it was not smart of me to have all them only saved in an external hard drive.
I'm in the midst of my grieving process and while at it, there have been a few people who have given me small patches of hope in retrieving the files. I haven't looked into them yet.
I was in Beijing for an entire day in transit from Sydney as our flight back to Nagoya was bumped to a much later schedule in the evening. I hate lay-overs but having never been to Beijing before, I thought it was an opportune time to see the sights I have only ever read about.
Here are some clips from the shameless touristy things my sister and I did at the Forbidden City and Temple of Heaven.
I look forward to flying to China again someday. I'm not sure I'm keen about Beijing sans The Great Wall but I've set my sights on Shanghai.
