6.8.08 - Two Months Away

Hey Everyone,
I find myself thinking what I'll be doing two months from tonight. Beijing's Olympic Stadium, called the "Bird's Nest", (right) will be the center of attention for people all around the world. I've sifted through a bunch of articles these past few weeks. Because the infrastructure in Beijing is not used to accommodating an Olympic-sized crowd, gridlock is a real possibility. The country is expanding their subway and highway systems. I am looking forward to seeing how Beijing will accommodate the crowds in a country already home to 20% of the world's population!

My passport and visa arrived this week! Our group is well on the way!
