Three years ago we were introduced to two girls, God had a plan for both. We have had the privilege to watch it unfold in miraculous ways. The culmination shall be in the trip to China over the coming weeks when we welcome Helen into our home.

April 23 noodles and music

April 23: Today it is 'almost' sunny as you can 'almost' see.  It is the first sun we have seen since we have been here.  We did a little shopping.  I had to head to QingPing Market to get some more allergy medicine for Molli and Helen.  A box in the hotel costs 70Rb and the same box at the pharmacy was 27RB.  Thankfully my guide took me over because I never would have found the pharmacy.   Unfortunately it is just Claritin and not Claritin-D.  Could not find the 'D' anywhere.  China must not even give its citizens the option of buying 15 a day and signing for it.  No 'D' no meth problems, this is China.

 

The highlight of our day was ordering pulled noodles and then watching him make them for us.  I hope the video will come through.  It is one of our favorite things to watch in China.  These noodles are famous in Molli's city.  The girls sat for a long time and listened to this musician in the restaurant.  I should know what this instrument is called, but I don't.  She wants the girls to come back every night.  Helen would request songs and she would play.  She told the girls she practices 3 hours a day.  It was very beautiful.

 

Tomorrow we go back to have the TB test read.  So far it looks good to me.  I am already looking forward to joining HCC for worship on Sunday via the internet.

 

Ok, I canceled the video.  It was taking way to long to load.  I will work on it another time.
