Sunday

No catchy title for today...another damp, cool, rainy day here. We have literally not seen the sun since we left Ohio! (and who knows when we even saw it there!!) We all went to the Guangzhou zoo today. It was nice, pretty typical zoo with a lot of tropical folliage, bamboo. And yes, there were dogs in cages, pomeranians to be exact. We asked Zhou why but he only laughed and said he didn't know. Avery loved the animals, especially the bears and lions who were pretty active. It rained/misted on us the whole time, so that wasn't fun. My camera batteries were dead, so no pictures...sorry!!! I have rechargeable ones, but i think the outlets must have low voltage, my flat iron doesn't even get very hot. Went to dinner again w/ our friends, Harris and Tracy and 3y Hattie, from alabama. They also have 2 teenagers, and 4 and 5y siblings adopted from Russia! They are a hoot and keep us laughing while we share pitchers of beer and talk. Avery is continuing to do well, but keeps calling me "da-da"! Gotta work on that! Can't believe it's been a week already with her. Only 4 days left!! Love, K/J/A
