Day 2 in Beijing. Spent the morning on the Badaling section of the Great Wall. Based on our very difficult climb, it’s hard to believe that the entire wall, and all it’s branches, measures 13,171 miles! Who wants to keep climbing? @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

Last stop of the day, the Summer Palace, the Chinese Emperor’s “Camp David”. Unbelievable amount of history in one place! And Beautiful!! @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

This afternoon we enjoyed a relaxing rickshaw ride through a Beijing Hutong, traditional courtyard residences, before dining in a local family’s home. The family was kind enough to cook for us then share the history of their home. @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

First day in Beijing! Spent the morning at Tiananmen Square and the Palace Museum. Beautiful architecture and lots of history! @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

Starting the next phase of our China adventure. High speed train from Shanghai to Beijing! 350 km/h (217 mph). Kids were happy to find a McDonalds in the train terminal. Even though the meal came with corn on the side 😂 @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

We ended our night, and our stay in Shanghai, with a riverboat cruise on the Huangpu River! Off to Beijing tomorrow! @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

Our students had the unique opportunity to learn calligraphy as well as some historical and modern Chinese characters today while at the Dong Tan Shanghai Experimental School! @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

Highlight of trip so far, in village of Tong Li, these two Shanghai natives wanted nothing more than to practice their English with us. Ages 6 and 7 and they were so excited!!! Happy they had a chance to show off their learning! @rochcommschools @RCSGlobal

[Todd Calcamuggio @ToddCal_AHS]

Students joined their host families today!! Thank you to the families of Dongtan Shanghai Experimental School for taking in our kiddos for the next few days!! @rochcommschools #RCSGlobal
