Definitely made it to China safely and said goodbye to my Cali shores. 

昨天我告诉加洲“再见”：）我到中国安全！

 

The view from my room was a bit smoggy/foggy but I'm told that's pretty typical for Beijing, had my first meal in China, and I'm so glad I won't miss all that traffic I left at home! lol Not crazy exciting but for me it's like doing everything for the first time and just adding that I did it in China.
