Mainland China - day 1 : PER - SIN - PEK
We spent half a day getting from Perth to Beijing, via Singapore. Flew using Singapore Airlines which live up to its reputation. The customer relations called 3 days prior to our departure making sure Kal is getting her bassinet & we are all seated closely. . We took a 5.5 hrs red eye flight, which is a blessing in disguise since both girls were sleeping until we landed in Changi. Left Changi for the second leg on 8 AM for another 6 hrs journey to Beijing. Once we arrived in Beijing Capital International Airport, first thing i did was checking the toilet 😂 which surprisingly very clean! Immigration line for foreigners was long, but bearable. Once we were out, went straight to the taxi area in the basement. Gave the hotel address printout in Chinese, and off we went. Beijing was quite cold that day, around 5 celc, and the first thing i noticed when we got out was the combination of thick fog & pollution. The sky was sadly grey,
