The next Olympics are in summer 2008 in Peking! It's supposed to get unbelievably hot there.

My DIL has had a time adjusting to the high altitude in the Rocky Mountains, but that's what makes the athletes really fit. She is so motivated and ready to take on the world.

We probably won't go to China...Someone has to take care of the baby. Oh well, I'm not too good with really hot climates anyway, so I rather stay home before they mistake me for a roasted Peking Duck.

Hannelore, you are always good for a belly laugh.

Go, go, go! Take the grandchild with you. Yes, China is hot (HOT!) but it is such a wonderful culture shock. Bring an umbrella and go.
