Today we ventured to THE GREAT WALL. This time we went to a different part than last time we were here which was great for Barbara and I. We went to one of the top towers this time around as we used the treaker that we borrowed. It was great even though I was carrying another 20 pounds on my back. It was very cool and windy today and CROWDED! It was a fun day of sightseeing and bartering with the vendors as I got some pretty good deals. ( I probably still got taken) After the wall we stopped at the JADE FACTORY where I bought Barbara a Jade bangle and Sophia and Jenna a special Jade charm for thier 16th Birthday. On the way home we passed by the olympic site; amazing! Well we are off to bed after a long day and up early for the babies medicals in the morning.

Great pictures!! It looks like a good time by all!!
Amazing photos! You all look so happy. Glad you are getting some different experiences from last time. the photos with the villagers are fantastic - what an opportunity! How do you find the backpack carrier? Looks like Sophia is loving her bird's eye view. Happy bartering - the silk market still there? Have fun! Keep safe. xx
I just love the expression on Sophia's face in all these pictures...She looks quite content, and maybe, just a little bit like she might be the one running things...Too cute!
HI Barb, Mike and Sophia: Looks like you all are seeing parts of China that You missed last time there. All is well here in Dalhousie. Jenna is relaxed being in her own home now with many of her special toys and own bed etc. I walked her down to Jessie's this morning and All were glad to see her. I imagine she will have much to tell them all today. We took her skating last evening and she enjoyed seeing all her friends especially Trevor. We have started to decorate 2 Easter trees for Jenna and Sophia. She does a little each day and is first chore each morning and ticks off each day left until all 3 of you are Home. Mike I took your truck for a little run to Campbelton today to warm it up from sitting idle since you left. We are having stew for supper and will then take Jenna to dance classes after. She is doing extremely well and anxiously waiting for all 3 of you to be home. You should be very proud how well behaved she has been with only being a little upset one morning when you phoned. Have a wonderful week and we are all looking forward to seeing you on Friday. May God guide you safely on your travels... Jenna, Mum and Dad Oxoxox
