FIVE YEARS DOWN THE TRACK...

In November 2004 we started the journey to bring a baby home from China ... five years later, in October 2009, we met Isobel Pingqin.
Our little livewire known as Izzy.

Nanchang - Day 3


Today our whole group visited Teng Wang Pavilion (we have four families in our group). It’s about 1,000 years old. The gardens inside were spectacular – every tree had been bonsai’d. Really beautiful. Experienced a squat toilet – mental note to self – don’t drink too much water before going out. Don’t want to use one of them in China again. I used them years ago when I was in Europe, but very different here in China.

Second stop today was at Walmart to stock up on nappies and formula for Izzy. Some local boys followed us around the whole time, fascinated by Ben. Not sure if it was his red hair or the fact that they all had orange t-shirts on. Notice the KFC sign in the background – apparently KFC is considered one the best eating places here! They are everywhere.

Rest time this afternoon – probably the last quite afternoon I’ll get for the next few years.
