Kumbum Monastery

Thursday afternoon we went to the Kumbum Monastery. Can you tell Anna Li has been here several times:) The weather was chilly and a little bit of a drizzle. There was some really neat sights to see. We were not real crazy about the smell of burning incenses everywhere. Some of the temples were so smokey I couldn't stand to stay around. We were not able to take pictures inside the temples so you will only see pics of the outside.
This little girl got really embarrassed that we were taking her picture. She put her hands over her face and gave us a dirty look. Then she ran off to find her mom.



It is actually Friday around noon here. Everyone is doing great. We found KFC today (our last day here!!) and a pizza place. We took the girls shopping and bought them a lightweight jacket each and Anna Li picked out some tennis shoes. She tried to get us to buy roller skates but we told her she would have to wait until we get home:)
Our flight leaves tomorrow at 1:30pm which is Friday night around midnight Alabama time (I think!!) Pray we have a safe flight to our final destination in China- Guangzhou.
Dear sweet Colin,
We miss you so much and can't wait to come home and see you. We will bring you a surprise!!
Only 6 more days. Hugs and kisses from Mom and Dad!!!
