Full Day!

Today was very busy, we had to be up by 6:30 to be able to leave the hotel by 8:00 to head for Julianna's medical. The medical itself went quite smoothly and she did a great job cooperating. Nothing too evasive but still good response to strangers touching her. Then back we came and had a little over an hour before we headed back out again for the tour of the Summer Palace and silk factory. The Summer Palace is beautiful even this time of year when the lake beside it is frozen enough to walk on. Can't imagine how beautiful the grounds must be in the spring when everything is green. The silk factory was interesting but we were all pretty tired by then and it was kinda hard to pay attention. However, we did get Julianna 2 very pretty chinese dresses. Those were a definite must on the shopping list. Tomorrow is shopping day at the market. Supposedly the market has absolutely everything. It should be interesting. My pictures downloaded into the computer and then decided to disappear on me. As soon as I find them I will post them.
