Summer Palace

The summer palace is another historic palace that was famously occupied by Ci Xi, the ruthless empress dowager. Back in the late 1800s, she put her son under house arrest for disobedience to her and misappropriated funds earmarked to modernize the Chinese navy to renovate this palace for her own enjoyment (and ours I guess too.. thanks Ci Xi).

For dinner we went back home and had another sumptuous Chinese meal with stellar service. This waitress was completely enamored by Joshua and was derelict in her waitressing duties for at least ohh.. 20 minutes while we ate our meal. I also got a shot of Joshua gettin' down on the stage; he just loves the limelight, let me tell you!
