ANOTHER AMAZING DAY

Today was another fun-filled, awesome day. Almost difficult to put into words, especially the Great Wall. That was such a surreal, breath-taking, awesome experience. We are still trying to absorb that we were really there. The climb up was pretty darn steep and uneven, etc. but we went a long way up and it was worth every step. Tia did great, too. She was ahead of us old folks most of the way. :-)). We went to the Jade gallery also and that was very interesting. Another yummy lunch and then off to the Olympic area. We did not know if we would make it to that, so we were all excited when we did. It was a long drive, but again, well worth it! Then to an unbelievable acrobatics show. We were not allowed to take pictures, so I don't have any to share, but it was great. Tia LOVED it. We were gone from the hotel about 12 hours today and she fell asleep in the van on the way back. She is asleep now and we are about to join her. Our sleep schedules are still off from the flight over, so hopefully we will get regular again by the time we have our sweet Rosie. We are SO excited to get to her province tomorrow and then have her in our arms on Monday. Stay tuned for her "arrival". In the meantime, enjoy the pictures from today. :-))

Oh, I almost forgot to share that Tia and I had our first real experience with the Chinese "squatty potties". Oh my. I will share a picture, but basically it was quite smelly, crazy and we laughed very hard!!
