We did not have any appointments or tours scheduled today so it was a shopping day. We got some Christmas ornaments (cloisonnes), Chinese children CD's, childrens books, and squeaky shoes for Kristy. Squeaky shoes are what they sound like. The shoes squeak when the walk in them. The children love them. We saw a little boy in the Forbidden City wearing them. You can take the squeaks out of the shoes. I'm trying to finish this with a 2 year old octopus on my lap. The girls went shopping after lunch while Kristy and I napped. We went to dinner at a local deli shop and had some traditional Chinese food. We had a pork soup, rice, beef, and I had fish (the fin came with it at no extra charge). I'm just grateful that I didn't get the head as it is not uncommon to have that served. Kristy had a little of everybodies dinner (this girl can eat). We did not do much today because everyone has some form of the Shantou flu that Kristy brought with her so I will leave a few pictures.

These are all such beautifully great pics and updates! What a wonderful thing for Kristy to read one day as she gets to review the part of her life of when her new family claimed her as their own! I hope you are all feeling better quickly!
Love,
Lynnette
