What to do New Year's Day in Beijing? First, we splept in. That was good. Then we just puttered around and enjoyed doing whatever. Finally, we bundled up and walked over to the Lido bowling alley....SMJ Bowling Club. We were a bit surprised at what we found...there were 20 lanes and the place was full. Best of all...there was no smoke! We hadn't intended to bowl, just look, but the bowling bug has a way of taking effect, so after about 20 minutes of watching we asked if there was an open lane. It turned out that one had just opened up, and within a few minutes we were out there with around 100 Chinese and a dozen other foreigners. We ended up having a really fun time. I couldn't find a light enough ball, but after we finished I found several really good ones so would like to try again with one of those.
