Today we visited the Great Wall, the Forbidden City,and Tian An Men Square. The buildings are so amazing, the detail that has lasted all these years is just so beautiful.
It was very crowded and very hot! Was not prepared for the mass of people we encountered. And let me tell you if you don't move out of the way they will move you anyway. We got to experience Chinese traffic and it's the most frightening thing ever!!
We were the center of several peoples vacation photos, they wanted to take pictures of their family with us. It was pretty cute, we took photos with lots of little kids and they were super excited to take a photo with an American.
Overall it was a good tour and we are ready to get some rest after all that walking.
So glad you made it! The pictures are great... I am so glad you have time to blog, I have been looking forward to seeing what you have done :o) The kiddos were so excited to see Where in the World is Miss Catrina. I made them wait until the end of circle time and let Carter open the envelope. They loved it! I can't wait to see the pictures of when you finally get your hands on Blair! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings your way!
ReplyDeleteWe are so excited for you and your family and are looking forward to meeting Blair this summer. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us! Love, Jo & Terry
