Great Wall Of China

Today we all met in the hotel lobby at 8:30 am to be bused to a jade factory, the Great Wall of China and then a cloisonne factory. It proved to be a very long day for these young babies as we ran into traffic delays. We got back to the hotel at 6 pm. Emily slept an hour here and there on the bus but she did not get her long afternoon nap, but was happy even with just the short naps. She seems to be a very contented happy little thing, still offering smiles to everyone even when she is dead tired!
We want her to have more cereal in her diet, so this evening we made up a batch, but she screwed up her face at it. We remembered how much she loves music, and as soon as we put some on for her, she looked up and started making "Ba,ba,ba" sounds and move her head from side to side laughing! She soon finished the whole baby bowl of cereal! We are having so much fun with Emily and she is just a delight to have in our lives. We feel so lucky, lucky, lucky!!!!!!
She was awake at 4 am this morning for a bottle and then slept again until 6 am. So we are all tired now and will go to bed, as we have to be down in the lobby for 8:30 am. We will go for Emily's medical exam to meet the entry requirements of Canada, and then in the afternoon we will go to the Beijing Zoo to see the pandas. Looks like another long day; they sure keep you busy here, and it will be nice to be home in Canada in a regular routine (after the jet-lag wears off)!
