Visiting the Olympic Park was a fantastic experience. The Bird’s Nest was absolutely remarkable to see. The architecture is mind-boggling. Brendan was particularly taken by the complexity of steel and glass and marvelled at it for quite some time. It was also fun imagining being a marathoner approaching the nest to the throngs of crowds within. We got some great pictures of the Nest, the Water Cube, and surrounding buildings before heading to the subway.
We made our way to the Yashu market (much more civilized than the Silk Market) before going home to relax before dinner.We joined a family from Iowa for our last dinner of the trip. And what did we have? Peking duck, of course! The boys enjoyed rolling their duck in little crepes garnished with hoisin sauce and cucumbers.
