We are all ready to rest after a very busy day! We spent almost three hours at the Guangzhou Zoo this morning. It really was fun, but it was pretty telling that the kids cheered when we saw the exit sign to the parking lot. The heat and humidity is truly unreal.
We ventured out with another family this evening to an awesome Italian restaurant. The owner is form New Jersey, and the food was incredible. Gracie eats bread like you wouldn't believe & really loved pasta tonight as well. The taxi ride back to the hotel was the worst (Brian thought it was great) yet. It made the Scream Machine at Six Flags look like a kiddie ride. Oh, I miss my safe little mini van and the fresh air of Greenville!
We got our first belly laughs out of Gracie today. I cannot tell you what that does for my heart. I can't believe she's the same girl who was so frightened on Monday. She really knows how to make us laugh - a true baby of the family. We are so blessed. We are so grateful for the Father's love and protection.
Tomorrow is another free day. We plan on finishing up our shopping. Counting down the days till we can be home. We love and miss everyone!
Wonderful to see Gracie opening up.I have a feeling God is going to use her to touch many hearts. She has already touched mine.My little China girl also has a way of making people realize how awesome God is.
