Only a day and a half to go here in China. Bo and I are in gift buying mode. Yesterday we went to a beautiful botanical garden and Bo had fun with me pushing him up the mountain in the stroller. Then at a few spots he got out and helped me carry the stroller up the stairs. He is pretty funny sometimes. Today we toured the herbal medicine market which is right across the bridge in main Guangzhou. There were some interesting creepy crawlies for sale and Bo wanted nothing to do with it. He was interested in petting some puppies and really loved the McDonald's chicken nuggets he got for lunch after our walk. This was the first McD's trip we've made so far. He even took a bite out of my hamburger so he must have been starving. He ended up eating the 4 nuggets in his happy meal and 2 from other people in our group. We are going to the consulate tomorrow afternoon for his oath and then we are done, hooray! As Ryan said in his post below, Bo has been telling everyone that he is American. I tell him he is still from China, even if he is American. A little complicated for a 4 yr old to grasp but we will work on that one. Our major purchae of the day was these sandals that light up when you walk with , you guessed it, Ultraman on them!
Alison, Ryan, & Bo,
