Today we went to an embrodery museum. Amazing how some looked like real photos.One silk embroidery was of Dong Chow Ping. You actually had to get up close to see that it was not a photograph. Neither of the girls were too impressed. Afterwards we went to a marketplace, like a Walmart. We cannot find any dresses. Danielle prefers dresses. All the clothes that we brought fit great. She is a 6x, but probably could wear a 7 in dresses. We think she doesn't like to leave the hotel. She gets a little stand-offish and quiet. Maybe she is nervous as to where we are going. She is also calmer today, again alot on her mind, I guess. She likes barbie doll, which we gave her one. Yesterday we bought it another outfit, which she was happy with. She seems to like Nicole. Speaking of Nicole, she has been amazing. She talks to Danielle as if she understands and doesn't care that she doesn't. She is a good traveller.
Thank you for your kind comments and emails. We love reading them, brings us closer to home.
