Morning exercise

JUNE 12, 2012
DAY SEVEN

People in China regularly spend part of their morning participating in some type of morning exercise or activity. We start our day in a beautiful park at the Temple of Heaven where we watch the locals and meet the instructor for our private Taichi and Kung Fu lessons.
