Just a Lazy Day

Hi All
Today we stayed around the hotel and nearby area. We walked to the park that is about a block away and had a nice time with another family that is travelling with us. The smog was really heavy this morning. The hotel doors were open when we came down for breakfast and it looked thick like smoke inside the building. There was no sun today or yesterday. Very cloudy and over cast. I have been feeling bad that we did not get any video or pictures of our trip to Jiaozuo yesterday. I think we were so focused on Hope Healing home as her "home" rather than her orphanage we just neglected to get any pictures. Hopefully the family that went with us will share their pictures. So I regret not doing that. Our guide stopped by today to ask if we wanted to go to the museum tomorow and we asked if we could find out whether there was a note left with her and/or where the exact finding spot was and she said the only information available is in her finding add which we already have.

Anyway, we had a nice day all together without any trips for paperwork. Daddy pulled out some matching shirts he had hidden (sorry Uncle Norm)so you can see that in the pictures.

We had an adventurous meal at a local resturaunt. The staff spoke very little english and it was quite a challenge but it all ended up fine.

We found out we are travelling with a pro baseball player...Braden Looper, from the Cardinals. Pretty cool.

Okay here are some pictures.

Glad to hear you had a good lazy day.

The park looks nice, did the girls find a new friend in the park?

I was wondering how the food was. Hope Pat is feeling better.

Love Kristi
