Free Day

We didn't have any official business planned for today, so it was a free day for us. It was nice not to have to get up early and have to be on the bus by 9:00 pr earlier. Nina has been a little more fussy than usual, as she has a slight cold with cough and stuffy nose. But she is still active and good for a little girl who isn't feeling well. We decided not to do too much today, but still like to get out and enjoy the warm 75 degree weather. We know that won't last long! We went to the supermarket in the morning to buy some water, diapers and a few other things. That is an adventure itself. The supermarket is located in a 7 story shopping mall. It's on the 4th floor, way in the back. It took us a while to find it the first time. It's across the street from the hotel, and the get there you have to walk down the street to a tunnel and then back up the other side. All of this for bottled water!

We ate a little lunch in our room and then went back to Shaimen Island. Momma did some shopping (just a little) while Daddy went for a run. We had borrowed a stroller from the hotel and Nina fell asleepjust before we met up again. We walked around a little so she could nap and then came back to the hotel and had a play date with one of the other little girls, about 6 months younger than Nina. Nina was so cute showing her the toys and how to work them. After dinner in the hotel it was a bath and bedtime.

Tomorrow we have our American Consulate appointment for the entire group in the afternoon. Due to security reeasons we cannot bring our cameras in. Then we will be all set to return home on Friday, after LOTS of packing!
