Beijing 2002 – Day 1: Sydney Airport, Views over Queensland, Timor Sea, Guangzhou Airport
My trip to Beijing started on the 5th and finished on the 13th of October, 2002. I went with a group of 37 people from Tamworth, Ballina, Safety Bay, and Melbourne. The one thing we had in common was an association with Oxley High School in Tamworth; in my case, it was knowing the group organiser’s wife who works at the same place I do. Beijing is such an amazing place that I will definitely have to go on the next trip!
