In 2008, Feng and I attended the Olympics Games in Beijing. It was our first trip to China together (and my fifth trip to China), and the first time we were coming back to the city where we had met in 1999. Oh, and the first time we were watching the Olympics live, goes without saying.
We booked the tickets with Finnair so we had an interesting stopover in Helsinki, Finland, on the way there and back.
