This and That

It's been a few days since I've posted pictures, so here are some to catch you all up.  We continue to settle in, have ups and downs, and overall are just getting used to our new life.  Naomi had her first band mini-concert.  We have video, but it's too big to post.  We're working on that.  Eli loves school but won't admit it.  Townes started Taekwondo at the gym next door.  It's all in Chinese, but he can follow along just fine. 

We bought Eli some sand toys and on nice days, we head down to the massive sand pit in the neighborhood park.

Townes likes it too...

Elaine (from ISCVT) came to town.  She took me out for a night on the town.  THANK YOU Elaine!!  Who knew there was salsa dancing in Shanghai... 

While Naomi had band practice, Townes, Eli and I found a new playground.

This panda kite cracks me up.  It also makes me feel oddly anxious for the panda.

We finally took Matthew with us to the Science & Technology Museum.  Yes, there's ice cream there.

He loved Rainbowland.

Very interactive exhibits.

I think you should all add in your own caption here.  There are so many great possibilities.

We finally found the right taekwondo outfit for Townes.  He likes it.
