Day 3 - hanging out with the fam
MY NEWEST NEPHEW!!!
This is Xing Lin who Mike & Lisa are adopting. They just gave him a new American name - Griffin. Lisa volunteered at an orphanage and just fell in love with him. He's 7 years old and he's such a sweetheart. I can see why Lisa's heart melted when she met him.
Day 4 - "One dream one shopping paradise"
Silk Street/Pearl Market is insane! People seriously grab you and pull you into their shop.
We all kinda went crazy buying Chinese trinkets.

Love those cute Hale kids! Miss them! Loved the photo of Luke meeting his Chinese cutie. Love the zipline off the wal--how fun was that?! So glad you guys got to do this!
A zip line off the Great Wall?! That sounds like so much fun!
Such a fun post to read!!
So Mike and Lisa are adopting a little boy? That is so great!!
Call me this weekend - I will be around working on my econ paper - UGH!
Wow, you just got back from China!?!? I had no clue!! Looked like fun! :)
And congrats on your new nephew!! What a handsome boy! :)
(I tend to look at pictures, comment, then go back and read what's going on and leave more comments. I'm kind of add like that, sorry ;)
love it! my fave is the pic of the two strange babies looking at each other. you can just see them thinking "wow he has big eyes." "wow, he has a nice tan."
I'm so jealous! I love CHINA! and I love you and put those two together and i'd be in heaven. you need to come back when matthew and i take tours there...
now on to more posts about your trip!
Such a fun trip, though I would have to say that a tour through the dogfood factory would be a blast with you guys! I guess a trip to China would be even better. I love all the pics and it looks like Lukey was such a good a boy! Isabelle is here on my lap checking out all the shots of her ilttle world traveler.
What an amazing experience!!! I am so jealous of your adventure. Ziplining, African dancing, general spleandor...although I can't believe the nerve of that guy trying to put a cigarette in poor lukey's mouth. I must admit you and Luke together are quite the famous couple...I thought that was the norm with the photographers here in the states as well...just kidding. Love ya girlie.
Okay, you guys know how to party!! That is an awesome trip and I loved the Fan club for Luke. Way to go!! See, traveling with kids is easy right? :)
Kate - It's your old pal Leslie. How fun to see your blog and especially your trip to China. That's so fun! Hope all is well.
