During our stop in "Old Beijing" we visited a family home, and when we left, these two little kids were standing outside the doorway. The little girl asked me "Take picture?" After I had taken the photo, she then asked me "I see, I see?". After showing her the photo I had taken of the two of them, she began jumping up and down and clapping saying "Yay!" Those two children started my morning off in "rural" Beijing in a great way!

This photo was taken just before we left Qian Men Emperor's Avenue, and before heading back to the hotel for the night. The trolley gave me a brief feeling of being back home - of being in Chinatown in San Francisco.
