Update

We are very sorry that we cannot seem to obtain an Internet connection strong enough to upload photos….. or even to access the blog page in order to do an update! We are now in Nanjing for a week, and will continue to seek a good connection.

Exciting news!  We have been joined by a fellow traveler – a giant green cricket/grasshopper (depending on who you ask) named Ed.  He was already occupying the cricket cage Henry wanted to buy, so a package deal was negotiated.  Ed seemed to enjoy the train trip from Xi’an to Nanjing today, chirping happily from time to time.

Updates to follow once we can share photos on activities since the last posting.
