We are suppose to depart Nanchang tomorrow at 5:45pm to return to Beijing. Our Notice of Comings have still not arrived, seriously enough stress already please. I just checked online with Purolator and it left the Hong Kong depot a few hours ago. I still cannot get a straight answer out of anyone if we will be able to depart with the rest of the group or not, seriously big freakin' sigh. I am praying our guide can work some kind of magic with all this red tape nonsense.
Today we travelled about 2 hours into the countryside to tour an ancient village. Boy it was hot there, everyone had sweat filled shirts our backs were drenched, the locals had on jackets some where even wearing polar fleece, you have to love that. Lots of wonderful sights and sounds, not sure I can say the smells were wonderful. It was beautiful, what you think China would look like, moutains off in the distance and surprisingly lush and green. Lily handled it like a trooper, barely broke out into a sweat. I had purchased a sun umbrella at Wal-Mart the other day, Dale was carrying Lily in the baby carrier and they used the umbrella today, too funny.
Lily and I had a few stressful moments today, she is so attached to her Baba already that when he stayed at the buffet to finish his breakfast and I brought her up to the room to get ready for the tour she had a major meltdown which lead me to have one also then she had another one late this afternoon when Dale and CAM went to a grocery store about 5 minutes away. We were down to 3 diapers. She is amazingly good at letting us know what she wants and does not want.
Her first English word that she fully understands is water. We were asked twice today if she was a boy or girl, of course I was not impressed either time - Ha! I will post more photos shortly. N
