Its our last day in China











We went to the pool, but we went too late, and the weather had changed. A wind picked up and the fog rolled in so the pool was chilly. The girls went in , but I did not. Ping was not scared one bit and enjoyed herself immensely.

Last night, we got together with the other two families we are traveling and ordered Papa Johns Pizza. Since Steve is the only one who speaks conversational Chinese, we let him do all the arrangements with both Papa Johns and the hotel guest services. Steve arranged it so we could have the recreational room for our pizza party and play air-hockey and arcade games. Everyone enjoyed themselves. I left my camera so there are no photos of this.

Today, is the day we go to the consulate and get her sworn in as an American Citizen. It takes effect when the airplane wheels touch down on the runway in Detroit on Thursday. I have already started packing.
