Spent a few hours in hotel room. Tried to sleep, but could not. So at 5:30 local time got up and read, showered and went to 79th floor for breakfast.
I had fried veggie wanton like things, plus seafood noodles, seafood fried rice, cantaloupe and pineapple, coffee, lots of coffee, which was very good. I also ordered eggs Benedict. That was not very good. Pastries were delicious.
Right now it is very overcast. Can't tell if it is entirely clouds, or smog too. I can see a stadium I believe was for Olympics out the window.
Getting ready to board a bus and drive to countryside. An outside chance we can divert group to great wall. That would be amazing. Keep you posted.
John joined Monica Pearson as co-anchor for Channel 2 Action News at 4 p.m. when the station launched the additional hour of early evening news on May 26, 2011.
