Olympic Village … 4 months ago…

The Beijing folks are such amazing capitalists that they were literally selling off the Olympic Village housing complex as luxury apartments in April – about four months before the Olympics!
The Olympic area is to form a new upscale residential area for Beijing, which has grown out many miles via concentric rings of development that began at the “center” of Beijing at Tiananmen Square.

Came over this side of the world for a visit and a china man rolled me in to a 2 year phone contract, so I stayed. Well that`s my excuse for not going home, it`s just such a wonderful place to live.
