John spent five days in Beijing introducing his good friends from Seoul - Prince Charles and John Hill - to his good friends in Beijing - Bruce and Pearl - Stephen and Sarah - Rocky and Jessie (who are getting married on June 23 - photo 13) and others. Beijing is really hopping getting ready for the 2008 Olympics. The new Olympic stadium is called the bird's nest and will be finished by December this year (Photo 5.) The Chinese government has ruled that all Olympic events and locations, from now forward, will be smoke free. The constuction workers have been ask to put away their ever present cigarettes - a big request !!
