Last day in China - trip to Folk Art Museum & Packing to come home

This is Roberta. 

 

John just left to pick up Audrey's passport and visa from our coordinator Shirley.  This is the last thing we are waiting on in order to go home.  It is hard to believe it has already been 2 weeks since we first arrived.  We are still pinching ourselves that we are so lucky to be bringing home this sweet, funny, beautiful little girl.  She is such a charmer.  She has learned to wave and mimic sounds even if we know she could not possibly understand what she is saying.

 

She has been napping for quite a while so I should recap today as I expect her to wake up any minute.  After the breakfast buffet this morning Audrey and I went on the optional group tour to the Folk Art Museum while John stayed behind to pack.  He also went shopping and a little tour of his own of the gardens around our hotel. 

 

This folk art Museum was built in 1890 and represents art from the Chen Dynasty.  The first attached picture is a close up of one of the building adornments.  Next picture is of one of our travel mates, John, feeding his granddaughter Lily while her mother Stacey looks on.  The third picture is of the working procedure of lime sculpture.  The last 2 pictures I took while carrying Audrey in the ergo  baby carrier.
