Well, we are packing to go on our first flight. Every time Jeff and I fly, we always think, "oh, no...families with kids!" Now, we are those people!
We will be flying to our motherland, Guangzhou and will be there for the remaining time. We will be traveling with another family who adopted a little girl here too. We will also meet all of the other families who have adopted from different provinces. We are so overjoyed to be bringing home Jackson but at the same time, it's bitter sweet because this has been his home for the past 2 years.
Side note- Mc Donald's sell fried pies-taro and pineapple ones. They also sell spicy crispy chicken wings and the coke is pretty flat. NBA is really popular here. We have been able to watch our favorite team, the Clippers play on ESPN. It's strange to see our normal sports casters but with Chinese speaking announcers in the background. This morning at 6:00 AM, college basketball was showing. The market sells really interesting Lays chips-kimchi, fish balls and even seaweed favored. We are trying to take in as much of the local culture as we can. Wuhan is pretty modern!
Mc donald's in Hawaii are fried, too!!! Apple, taro, coconut... I think have a couple more flavors, too. Just haven't been over there during those "seasons." had the ramen though.
