I have never read much less written a blog before. I will try, through this blog, to give you all an idea of what it means to live here. We live in "bubble" so it is a sanitized version of Shanghai. I say this because where we are is mostly expats and the entire area caters to the non-Chinese and it's much easier than what we call "regular China". We have and will continue to venture out to regular China and I will share what I can. I have many more pics etc already but need to take more time to get them posted and figure out how to manipulate this blog.
The children are doing quite well here and school is going along well too. Brooke is currently on her school trip to Beijing and has already been gone five days - she returns tonight.
I will have pictures to share soon from her trip and also of other adventures we have taken. The day to day things we see will be most entertaining on their own - I just have to stop long enough to capture them on camera. Wait til you see the local supermarket or the way our subdivision is maintained.... more to come.
Thanks and please leave comments as well.
Glad to hear from you and see the blog. We miss seeing pix of the kids and talking with you guys. Also recall our days overseas when our kids were young: some trying times but in the end all worth it. Always have beds for you here.
ReplyDeleteOh Heather, will you please bring me back a bag of the fungus? I prefer the white jelly kind, easier on the tummy. LOL!
ReplyDeleteSoo glad you did this. I know it's time consuming but we are all grateful!
Miss you all so much,
Melissa
Love the blog! Thanks for posting pictures. The boys love seeing what your kids are doing and what life in China is like. How cool that Brooke got to hike the Great Wall! Zach said he would love to do that! Your house looks very nice!
