We have been in Beijing for four days now. We lost the game yesterday 3-1 . The game was played on astroturf which was a bit of a surprise. We played well but did not create enough chances. Matt Bauchle and Kevin Boone did very well. We are now getting injuries. Thomas Biddinger flew home on Monday with a broken foot. Jake Deloach and Ryan Maleknia have both been sick and Stephen Wright has reinjured his ankle and will not play any more on the trip. Everyone is getting tired but the spirits are high. Today we went to Beijing Zoo and to the Olympic stadium. It was very impressive; they get over 90,000 visitors a day. On Sunday we went to a Chinese professional soccer game. Over 40,000 people were there, it was a very interesting game. The hotel is very good, it is in the financial district of Beijing. It is very busy. The service once again has been very good - the tour guide has taken quite a shine to Declan.
We play our final game tomorrow and then on our last day we go to the Great Wall of China.
