A Day at the Park

Thursday, March 28
     Today in Nanchang, we took a cab to the "Peoples Park". It was very lush and green.  Olivia was able to do a little pitching practice. She actually drew a little crowd. I sat with Sophia and Terry was catching her pitches. Echo, our facilitator, wanted to give it a try too. She was hilarious. We also sent out some laundry to be washed today. It was AWESOME!! I wish I had laundry service at home. Put it in a bag, the lady comes to get it and the next day, your laundry is delivered, washed dried and folded. We received most of Sophia's official documents today and the rest will hopefully be ready in the morning before our flight to Guangzhou. 
     We did find out today the little miss has a TEMPER.  She has not been to fond of getting a bath but tonight she loved it.  She splashed around, played with her toys and laughed and giggled. When I tried to lift her out of the tub and hand her to Terry  she started bucking and screaming. Took awhile for her to calm down. We finished packing for our flight tomorrow. So, we are 3 flights down and 3 to go! Can't wait to get home to a refrigerator that is COLD and ice I can actually not be afraid to drink.
Here are a few pics of our day....

So glad things are going well and happy to hear Terry is back to himself! Way to go Liv for pitching! I will make sure I tell Kari all about your dedication. Sophia is so adorable and it warms my heart to see her so happy, especially in the pics with Olivia. The swim caps still have me laughing! Be safe traveling and keep blogging, I love keeping up!

Wow!! Nanchang looks SO SO SO different than it did just 3 months ago when it was COLD and brown and then snow-covered on our last day there. Glad you guys have decent weather... no jackets required!! Everyone looks great and glad to see Terry is doing better! Miss you guys, and glad you are headed to Guangzhou. The internet in The Garden Hotel there is pretty good...about as good as it was in Nanchang at the Galactic Peace hotel. Safe travels!!
