Feel the Burn - Beijing Style!


Surrounding the Temple of Heaven in Beijing is a large park where many Beijingers like to come to hang out.  You'll find people line dancing, playing hacky sack, doing tai chi and using the adult-sized playground equipment to work out.  It's like an open-air Chinese YMCA!  We had a great time people-watching and Jill and Brenda even got into the act.
    It's the Beijing version of the electric slide!
    OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Man of steel!

    Just hanging around. 

    Brenda monkeyed around with the locals.

    Jill tried out a Chinese elliptical machine.


    Tai chi

    Tai chi

    Tai chi ball - kind of a cross between paddle ball and      
   juggling. 

           Finally, Jill showed us all how flexible she is!  You go, 
      girl!
