Sunday in Beijing - part 1

Sun Sep 23, 2007 at 9:00 am | china 2007 | journey to Karys | 3 comments

Today was another busy day that started with a visit to the Beijing Zoo. We didn’t visit the zoo in 2002.

This was the normal scene in our van as Eliana talked Amy’s ears off for the entire 30-minute trip.

How about a 3-point road turn in the middle of a busy street by a bus?

The main attraction is, of course, the pandas.

Funny sign at the panda compound.

Come here, mom!

We passed an ice cream stand and just had to stop. Carmi started out giving Karys just a taste of her ice cream and the Littlest Empress decided she wanted the whole thing.

This is what happens when the ice cream runs out.

There were Red Pandas.

I’ll be darned if Godzilla wasn’t there too. I guess he swam over from Japan.

The “lest suddeness happens” sign gave me a good laugh! I hope little Karys didn’t cry too long for ice cream that was “no more!” It was so good to talk to you all on the phone! Love you!

Love the “lest suddenness happens” sign!  I’m jealous that you all got to see the pandas.  Looks like another fun day in China.  Funny that Eliana isn’t “talked out” yet --- does that ever happen?!?  Getting closer to coming-home time ... woohoo!  Love and hugs.

I think my new saying if the girls are being naughty is that they better be careful “lest suddenness happens”!  tongue wink
