Glimpses


film Beijing - The Kingdom's Capital
 
 
The capital of Beijing was a city where both Jackie and I had visited, albeit separately. Jackie had been there for work twice within the past 6 years; I lived there in 1988 as a student at Beijing Teacher's College (Beijing Shifan Xueyuan), but this was my first time back in 15 years.

DragonAir (Gang Long Hang Kong) was the airline that got us from Kaohsiung to Hong Kong. Good food and great service.
