What we do when the Locals are at the Graves...

we go out to play! the weather was really nice, sunny, warm, not raining! i mean, amazing! we didn't have school for 3 days because it was "Grave Sweeping Festival" where the locals go to their ancestors graves...we enjoyed our time...at the big park by the river, where we rode across in one of these little boats!

We went to the People's Park, to the small zoo and we were pleasantly surprised to find a new tiger, lion and 2 new black bears! the black bears were so fun playing with one another! Josiah wanted a picture in front of the huge Tiger!

there were even rock climbing stations at the Zoo Park!

And we rode the carousel twice!!!! Evie Joy even wanted to ride more!

And we played in the parking lot next to our apartment complex, it isn't paved so it's a huge mass of black gravel for us to dig in!

the Water Man Shu Shu's son Si Li Chao came to play with us too!

If Evie Joy didn't get hungry she could probably stay out there all day! That girl loves diggin in some dirt!

Don't worry we took a mid day bath!

Well we went to the Park, sailed in the boat, went to the Zoo, climbed some rocks, rode the carousel, dug in the dirt....now we are back in the classroom! It was a fun break!
