Hi guys. We had another fun-filled day of touring in Nanchang. We went to the TengWang Pavilion which is a major sight seeing place here in the city. It is a really beautiful place with lots of bright colors inside. There were also some souvenirs inside for sale. We bought a couple of little things for the girls, because we also visited this place when we were here with Aleia. We also went to the "new city" of Nanchang. They are building it up on the other side of the river. There wasn't really anything there when we were here in 2004. It is amazing how many new big places there are over there.
This evening we went downtown with the Mcconnell's to a department store and to eat at KFC. We took a taxi ride to get there. WOW!!! That is all I can say. You haven't been in a taxi until you have taken a ride in one here. I have never seen my life blink in front of my eyes so many times. It is definitely a crazy place to get around. We bought some shoes. Surprise, suprise. Papaw will be proud.
Alexa had another great day. She is really beginning to chatter"mama" on a regular basis. Daddy doesn't like it real well, so he keeps trying to get her to say "baba" (dad in chinese) Someone asked in an email about how much we thought she weighed. My guess would be about fifteen pounds. She's very tiny and real delicate. Very quiet when she cries. She really looks around for Bob and I now. It is absolutely so amazing that you can love someone as much as we do in such a short time. We are headed to bed now. We are taking a tour to the countryside in the morning and then having lunch at McDonalds. Love to all, Bob, Lisa, and Alexa
