China trip the weekend

The boys forgot to pack their backpack so until this point I gave them my laundry bags to use to carry their stuff. We all went to the silk market which is actually 6 floors of stuff from jewelry to toys to bags to clothes and shoes. Managed to get. Few small gifts for the Canada trip. On Sunday we headed to xidan and then a long taxi ride back to the school to see the kids cone back from the homestay.

Since I got in earlier I sent nates Chinese paintings to et silk borders and an additional layer. It turned out really nice an I hope that motivates him to paint better.
