Well today was a good relax day, one of the first days I've had over 8 hours sleep since I got here. Which was very nice.

Since my roommate/co-workers dad is here, they had some errands to run to, so I met up with Michael, and we went to lunch at a Beijing Style restaurant. In the first picture the dish on the left is a vegetable wrap, with a sauce made with Horseradish sauce, quite spicy, but very good.

One the way back to the apartment we drove by the other Microsoft Office which hosts the Research and Development Groups, this office is in the University section of town, so it's actually an odd place to have a big business office.

Around 4pm there was a huge Rain/Thunder storm that came through, and lasted up until around 10pm, hopefully the rain will help clear the air, since it's been really bad for the last 4 or 5 days.

I ended up watching most of the Olympic games for today on the TV. In China only CCTV can broadcast the games, but in the US there is great coverage by NBC, and in a separate post, I'll write about the new Media Center Plug-in for the Olympics Coverage that is quite good.

Tomorrow should be a little busy, as I'll be heading into Silk Street (solo), to get a few last things I've been needing to pick up.
