We waited around our hotel room. Well, Chuck waited in the hotel room. Our guide took all our paperwork to the American Consulate to fill the paperwork to bring Danni home. We had a group picture on the famous red couch. Danni was screaming and crying the whole time while the babies on each side […]

Nick’s post to Family and Friends
Today, I started to miss my cousins and friends. I am doing my school work and reading material. I miss my home too. I can’t wait to get back home with my baby sister. I learned there are 16 million people in Guangzhou. There are 4 different religions in China: Buddhism, Christianity, Muslin, and Taoism. I haven’t […]
Day 10 – Yuntai Park
Today, we went to a Buddist temple and Yuntai Park. We saw some Kindergarten aged children at the Buddist Temple. They gave out key rings and practiced their English on us. They were so cute. The park was very pretty. We didn’t get a lot of pictures to post because the camera battery wasn’t fully charged. […]
Day 9 – Chen Family Temple
Today, we went to the Chen Family Temple. It was a little crowded. We did attract attention. There are 11 families in our group. Danni is taking about 3 to 4 and sometimes 5 naps a day and sleeping from 7pm – 4:30am at night. She is still trying to adjust to the change in […]
Day 8 – Guangzhou
We arrived in Guangzhou late last night. We are staying at the White Swan Hotel. We had to go through security to get into the hotel because the Asian Games are going on here. When we were at the airport, our guide started talking to Debi in Chinese. She could tell Debi was part Chinese […]
Day 7 – Fly to Guangzhou
Today, we take a flight from Nanchang to Guangzhou. Our guide for Beijing and Nanchang will leave us and we will get a new guide in Guangzhou. We were kind of worried at first because it took us a while to get through security. Our poor guide was pacing the floor. He could not come […]

I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. Today, Danni has not stopped crying. She wants to be held all the time. We tried to make her take a nap but she didn’t want a nap. My mom and I sang to her. She likes Hush little baby and Amazing Grace. When we sing she calms […]
Day 6 – Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!! Our guide is going to take us somewhere to have a nice meal for Thanksgiving this evening. We will be having duck instead of turkey and probably rice instead of dressing. We are going as a group so we will all spend Thanksgiving together. Today, we are going to XiangHuPark and relaxing […]
Day 5 – Teng Wang Park
Last night was a little rough. She got her head stuck in the crib once and then her legs. We finally gave up on the crib. She took a lot of naps today. We think all the trauma from getting stuck made her tired. We went to Teng Wang Park. We walked around a big circle. […]
Nick’s Post to family and friends
Yesterday, we got my baby sister. She cries when she gets her diaper changed, her clothes changed, or when she takes a bath. She doesn’t like loud banging noises. She likes when I make her laugh. She likes to head butt people and laughs about it. We head butt each other and we both laugh […]
