Life in our "House"




Today we decided to walk a little farther and explore, but Liang could not handle it...does anyone know if there is a medical condition that would cause extreme sweating? He can barely go outside and he is soaked.
Anyway daddy and brother went with Liang to the book store for a dictionary...he informed me that he needs a dictionary to do his homework fo about $2 we have a new Chinese dictionary.
The rest of us walked around the block and were stared at all the way...ah well we are funny looking.
It is hard to keep them occupied, I found some Lego type building sets and that is occupying some time.
For those of you from our last travel group, Li did contact me and said she would like to stop by sometime...didn't hear back on a date yet. Yikes, how do you entertain when you are out of your territory? Guess we can offer Coke...
We are offcially tired of noodles...so tonite we will check out a restaurant that we found....see what we decide.

Today the girls pulled up all the kitchen chairs and played church...wonder what Liang will think of church.

Gottta get a picture of the meat stands and their fly chasing fans....maybe next time.

well I guess I'm getting a fried brain..not much more to write...oh the weather...definitely more smog...we all feel it in our sinuses, and apparently so do the natives...the blobs on the sidewalk were more frequent today. The anti-spitting campaign did not eliminate it.

  1. Glad to read things are going fairly well. I remember the blobs on the sidewalks and streets while we were there, it was like dodging blobx at times. Praying the rest of your trip goes smoothly and Liang continues to do so well.

  2. I don't know of a medical condition, but my son starts to perspire almost immediately when it is hot. My doctor said it was probably an adaptive thing because it was warmer where he lived than here. He said that people in India have adapted over centuries to do just that because of the heat.
