Duane workin' it like a rock star

Entrance to the park

Today we went to a wonderful park that had a cable car to the top of the highest mountain in the city. It was great fun and we enjoyed looking at all the sites. Everything seems to be in bloom and flowers were everywhere. We encountered something we didn't even encounter last time we were here. Since it was sat. at the park it was filled with a huge group of school children. Mostly around 10-12 yr olds. They literally mobbed Duane like a rock star...please see following pictures. We could not get away from them....it was absolutely amazing!!!!!!!

We then enjoyed a lunch of noodles made right in front of us. We ate with chopsticks since they had no forks and it was the best meal ever!!!! He was the most gracious host. Then we went to a HUGE mall type shopping. I found some wonderful bargins for my eldest daughter....since she reads this as well I can't tell what they are....trust me they are beautiful. We topped off our evening with a walk downtown and a lovely dinner.

How we have loved our time in China so far. It has been an experience we will never forget and the best is yet to come. We will be leaving on a FAST train tomorrow to Nanjing and then the glorious day will be mon when he is finally in our arms.
