It is now Thursday afternoon about 4:52 pm. We leave tomorrow for Guanzhou at 2:00 pm. Not real sure on how Anrea is going to do on the plane ride. She still won't drink from the sippy cup, but we are still trying. Jerry went to the local market today, and he had a short sleeve shirt on and the people laughed at him and pointed. You need to understand that they wear quilted clothing and two layers here, and it is only in the mid 50's, boy what would they do if it really got cold here. She is starting to let us hug her, and opening up alot. Went to the wall that was built around the city to protect it, when the Japanese attack China. For you home school moms and history buffs, google this and read up on it. It is interesting. Our guide Denise, said that about 300,000 Chinese people was massacred by the Japanese during this attack. I have attached some pics of it, also the bricks have the names of the people who made the bricks, so that you cared about the quality of the brick that you made. 200,000 people built the wall, but most of them did not see it finished because it took so long to complete.

Yesterday when we went and visited the orphanage, I forgot to mention that we got to take a pic of the hotel and restuarnt where Anrea was found. This child is never still......we can tell that she is getting stronger already. We went to the local museum also. There we had a history lesson on jade, the two types, and where it comes from. One from the mountain and one from the river. Didn't know that.
