Daughter Duo

From Wednesday 06/25 -
I am typing this tonight (Wednesday) and will post it hopefully tomorrow. We did not purchase any more internet time here at the hotel. It has rained all day long here. It is from the typhoon. It is headed for another location and we are just getting the rain. We tried to get out and shop a bit but could not stay out long. We did go to dinner with several families. The family in our group met us and two families from near Macon, GA. We went back to the Italian restaurant. We again enjoyed the meal and the fellowship. One of the dads had us hold hands and asked the blessing. : ) Now you know why we so easily connected with them. Emelia felt really bad most of the day and was quite an ill pill because she felt bad. She can be such a pill and so sweet as well. Evelyn coughed while in the restaurant and she reached and gently rubbed her cheek just like I had done her earlier in the day. She copies so much that we say and do. We had better take seriously our example. Earlier today I went and had a massage. I did not have an opportunity while here before so that was on my list. I was most interested in the foot massage but got something totally different. Scott was sweet to stay with the girls while I went. He had one early on in our stay. Anyway, I was just going to get the small bucket. There was a communication barrier however I did understand that it was not available at that time, maybe later. I knew if I went back to the room that I would never make it back so I took what they could do then. I thought I was getting the large bucket massage like Scott had but it was not. I don't know what it was considered. It was the entire back, shoulders and neck. Scott's lasted 90 minutes and mine only lasted 30. When I went to pay it was 101 yuan and I had only carried 100. I had to tell them I would come back later. Scott's 90 minute visit only cost 69 yuan (about $10). Mine was still cheap, I just did not have the cash with me. Oh well, leave it to Alicia. We are pretty much packed up and ready to begin our journey towards home. We check out around 2pm tomorrow and go to the consulate for the oath around 4. We will leave after that via train for Hong Kong. We will be there Friday and Saturday night and will fly out Saturday morning. Wahoo!!!!!
