We just hung out at the hotel Wed morning and had a playdate with the other family that Lexie Tian Tian is very good friends with. The kids had so much fun playing with each other. Then we met our guide around 2 and she had all the documents back from the notary for us. She then took us to the museum shop so we could do some shopping. Yep I bought a lot of stuff. The kids picked out many cool things. Cole is so excited to bring the stuff to school for show n tell. He also told the manager of the store that he was bringing his baby sister in for show n tell. Too funny. After that we went to one of the pavillion's and walked all around it was so beautiful.
Today was one of the most amazing days of our trip. We visited with a local Miao Village. We learned about their culture, how they live (which really makes us appreciate our homes and bathrooms!), they danced for us, made sticky rice which was so delicious, performed some ritual dances with us, had a singing contest and much more. The kids loved it. Cole was very enthralled in the whole experience.
Tomorrow we receive Lexie Tian Tian's passport around 4:00 and then we fly to Guangzhou at 6:30 where we will meet back up with the rest of our travel group. We can't wait to see them all and their new children! In the morning we will head to a children's shop to buy chinese dresses. Tomorrow begins the last leg of our trip before we head home!
