Chinese in China


This is a picture of our taxi driver on the way from the airport to the hotel when we landed in China. The reason we're showing this is to point out that we found most people (and ALL regular taxi driver) we not able to speak a word of English(even in Beijing). So when you get into a cab, you better have your destination address written in Chinese characters. We did in this case, but he still had to call to confirm how to find the place. He actually handed the phone to Mike at one point. The guy on the other end spoke no English and obviously Mike spoke no Chinese. The good news is that we got to our place just fine.
