Since we are the only family with GWCA in Jiangxi province, we have a lot of flexibility of what we can do each day. Today we were supposed to see a pavillion of some sort. But the weather has been very rainy and cold and we've been a bit couped up in the hotel. Finally today is nicer, both dry and warmer. We wanted to spend time outside and see some of real Nanchang. We talked to another family at breakfast that went to a "free market" yesterday. It is kind of like a flea market in the states. So our guide, Veronica, took us there and then we just walked all around that part of Nanchang. We bought a few things (Tom & Jerry PJs for Lena and some Mickey Mouse hair bows for both girls) but we mostly just enjoyed the morning people watching. Macey is sleeping now and we might go to a park later today.
We had McDonald's for lunch today. It was really yummy! Macey loves french fries like her jie jie. We all tried sweet taro pie there...very good!
Here are a few photos from last night and today:
Macey in her bathtub...she's not too fond of washing her hair yet!
I love my hair bow and sunglasses!

Macey is adorable...glad you're enjoying Nanchang. We loved it there, although it was August and soooo hot. The people were lovely and friendly. If you haven't gone to the shopping mall (I think near the porcelain shops and one of the WalMarts), you might wish to. I found some of the cutest little shoes there. Much better quality than the ones on Shamian. Wish I'd bought more. :o) Have a great time!
Donna,
I'm so glad that Macie is doing so well!! And yes, the traffic in Nanchang is crazy!! I just wanted to write and suggest that you visit People's Park, since you are having a few nice days. It's absolutely beautiful and was one of my favorite places in Nanchang. Also, the TengWang Pagoda is a wonderful place to visit. Enjoy the rest of your time in Nanchang!!
Looks like everyone is doing great. So good to see. We had Veronca also. We loved her. Please tell her the Eakes family said hello. She is so wonderful.
