Ngong Ping Cable Car, Hong Kong
We arrived safely in Guizhou. The hotel is beautiful and though we are in the poorest province in all of China, you wouldn't know it by the looks of the hotel. We are all wired and sleep for us is nowhere in sight. The children have been such troopers and they have enjoyed every moment of today. Today....we decided to venture out on our own. Yikes. It was so much fun. Just us. No one to help us, we felt as though we had conquered the world. First we had to figure out the subway system. We left our hotel in the first subway that donned Mickey Mouse windows. Then we boarded yet another train into a section of Hong Kong and took a 25 minute cable car ride over the South China Sea and arrived at our destination, a mountain top village. There, we climbed to the top of this big Buddha statue. We enjoyed taking in the sounds and smells of the village. Then, we meandered our way back to our hotel, retrieved our luggage and began our journey to Guizhou. Our guide got us all checked in the hotel and will pick us up tomorrow at 4:20 to go meet Maddox. MK was so excited when she saw the crib set up in our room for Maddox. All day we have made comments to one another about it being our last dinner together as a family of five or we wonder if Maddox will cry or MK wanted to know if Maddox would go to co-op (funny the things that come to her mind out of nowhere). While in Hong Kong, we couldn't help but notice the little girls at Disney as well as during our tour today. They are all so precious! There is one distinguishing factor between MK and the little girls who live in China. Care to guess what it is?
