We have way too many free days because we bought our tickets before we had TA.  I wanted to make sure we had tickets to get there!  I know I will be ready to come home long before it's time. When I think about how long I will be there it makes me  homesick.  24 days is too long!

Gotta go pack.  Again.
Or unpack.  Again.
Because my luggage weighs too much.

  3. AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!! Ok- if you can read these- Zhenzhou- the zoo is fun, there is a big mall that is great to walk around and an even better pastry shop on the street by the mall. Helpful I know. There are huge opulent stores everywhere. Michael took the kids to the Historical museum too- and said it was good. No, I mean, NO other caucasians. We are praying. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
