Provincial Museum, Hung Out, Got More Documents

The group is wearing down…a couple of the children are having a hard time with the adjustment..our clothes are getting dirty and the choices for getting them washed don’t work for us right now…we are wanting chocolate and a salad…getting tired of squatting to go to the restroom…our stomachs are not doing so well… can’t drink any tap water or use it to brush our teeth, we have to boil it in our room… haven’t seen the sun….eating is challenging if you don’t want to spend an arm and a leg at the hotel…McDonalds and KFC are a hike…

This morning we went to the Provincial Museum. It was pretty cool. It showed the history of China through each dynasty and the artifacts that have been excavated. The oldest piece was around 8000 years old!

We got some more documents that we will use in Guangzhou and at immigrations in the US. We are preparing to fly on to Guangzhou tomorrow…it will be Eli Mingzhe’s first airplane ride…that would be my bet anyway!

Today is our 27th wedding anniversary! I also bet this is the only wedding anniversary that we will celebrate in China! Dave is at the Seven Eleven looking for a candy bar for me and we are getting pizza to go at the Italian restaurant in the hotel! I told him absolutely no need for a gift! We have our little souvenir right next to me sleeping in his 5 star crib!

Speaking of Eli…he is a keeper! He is a sweet little boy..a good little sleeper…a good little eater and drinker…he likes to go walking and today he has been flirting with all the ladies! He has the cutest little smile as he shrugs his shoulders and turns his head! He knows who his Mama is!

Dave just returned with a Snickers and Dove bar! Happy Anniversary David! I love you!
