Beijing (3 days)
We flew from Okinawa to Shanghai's international airport. Then we boarded a bus to go across town to the regional airport to immediately fly to Beijing. Beijing was the northern most city that we visited and it was very chilly. While we didn't see any snow, temperatures were in the 30s the entire time and the air was very dry.
