Off We Go!

We leave for 2 weeks vacation in the US tomorrow morning and are super excited!  I even caught a cold for the occassion ;-)  We feel incredibly fortunate to get the opportunity to be with both our families again this holiday season and hope to take advantage of every moment we are home.

As we take off, here are a few images from our week in China:

We had SNOW -- all day Tuesday it swirled around outside my window looking so beautiful and there was enough that it stuck for over a day ... so pretty!

 

We saw this man writing/painting (?) ancient Chinese characters in water on the walkway of a park.  Sort of reminded me of kids with chalk.

This type of cart is something we see quite a bit of and it always makes my heart hurt ... often the cart is being pulled past a parked Ferrari and the contrast makes me shake my head in disbelief.
