THANKS alohaowzit!! That early morning light was precious in China. To have a day where the sun actually was able to choke its way through the smog was a bonus. This was a picture perfect blue sky day in Beijing and about 85 degrees at mid day This panda was so oblivious to us...we were there at the opening of the gates to the public and were the only people in there it seemed. Weird feeling but it was Golden Week and a huge holiday in China (kind of like our Thanksgiving)
