Another day behind us
Hello,
It is Wednesday night in China about 9:30 and Addie has gone done for the night. She does pretty well about sleeping through the night except for one quick snack. The weather was beautiful here today, mid 80's with a little breeze and not much humidity, the nicest so far. The breakfast buffet is always interesting. All the dishes have the name written in Chinese and then in English below that. The most intersting this morning was "pig belly in chili oil" If it had said spicy bacon I probably would have gone back for seconds. It really did not look too bad. There is always a side table with several different dishes, one is "Cong Che" Spelling? It is basically runny grits. Also on that table is some type of pickeled insect pod. I say it looks like a butterfly cocoon but Chris thinks they are silk worm pods. Also on that table is some type of pickeled egg that is dark translucent gray. On fear factor they have something that looks the same and they call it hundred year old eggs. For those of you that have always wanted to know there is no thirteenth floor in Chinese buildings either, 11, 12, 14, 15 and so on. In an amazing revelation Addie has already learned to speak English. Everything she touches goes in her mouth. I say no, don't put that in your mouth and she does anyways. She picked up the teething ring and started to put that in her mouth and I told her she could put that in her mouth so she promptly threw it down and stuck the remote control back in her mouth. She understands she just has the meaning of yes and no backwards. I am going to enclose some pics of local stuff in this post. There are lots of buses. Some are electric. The are attached to overhead wires and have to stary directly under the wires. That is the reason for the bus pictures. The others are just stuff i saw on the way to McDonalds. I will post Addie pics seperately. Thanks again for all the supportive notes and your prayers. I know God is blessing me through your prayers granting me patience and good humor and patience and patience.
Kevin
