In Beijing

View from the J.W. Marriott in Beijing

Just arrived in Beijing to participate in the U.S. Ambassador’s Investment Forum, designed to educate Chinese companies on the challenges and opportunities of investing in the United States.  I will be on a panel with other service providers, including lawyers, accountants and investment advisors.

 

The 13 hour flight over was pleasant, even though it was delayed by four hours.   Once airborne, we had dinner and then I watched an episode of Breaking Bad on my IPad.  Figuring I should get the sleep in early since I would arrive at 8 pm, I popped an ambien and dozed off.  I woke up an hour and a half before landing, which was not my plan.  Must have slept for about 8 or 9 hours and now, here I sit, wide awake in my hotel room at 10 pm at night. 

 

What to do in Beijing in the middle of the night, since it will be a long time before I get back to sleep.
