Still Alive

Hello to all my "Faces". As always ,I hope this message finds everyone in good health and spirit:) I am on the run because we need to catch the bus in 30 minutes. Our days have been filled with meetings, speeches, and some siteseeing. A little overwhelming at times with time change and on the move until about 9:oopm every night. Yesterday we were at the Great Hall of the people. Today we will be visiting the Forbidden City and the Great Wall of China. Definitely am not in Kansas anymore. I have learned that things are pretty different and you must be prepared. For example, I was in a department store yesterday and found out they don't keep toilet paper in the bathrooms. Luckily I checked in advance and found a store that was stocked:) And as my daughter would say, TMI dad! Don't worry Tasha, I won't go into anymore detail. Next message I will try to upload some photos. We are supposed to visit another school and then go to a performance at the National Performing Arts Theater. A message to all my card playing friends, don't lose:) rre
