Beijing Buildings

I was in Beijing the first week of July to visit some friends from Texas that I worked with in Colorado in the early 90's. One of the photos was taken at the Forbidden City. The others are photos of the "Bird's Nest" Olympic Stadium. If you haven't seen it before, you'll be seeing it a lot starting 08/08/08 at 8 p.m. China time (8 a.m. Eastern time in the USA). In one of the photos you'll see a funny shaped building behind the Bird's Nest. That is meant to look like an Olympic Torch Flame.
