There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

OCTOBER 2, 2014 -- SUZHOU AQUARIUM

SUZHOU AQUARIUM
October 2, 2014

We had a fun adventure and outing to the Suzhou Aquarium.  It was a little ways away but we took taxis there and spent a few hours.  It was a little expensive for the quality of the facility.   We had fun, however, and we saw the dolphin show twice and enjoyed lots of exhibits.

Rebecca, David, Rachel, Amy, Bethany, Daniel

Dolphin show #1 from up top





This clown played "rock paper scissors" the Chinese way and gave away balloons if you beat him.  He blew a whistle constantly as he did this and was quite loud.





When you slip, please do it carefully
David was asked to be in a picture with this boy -- obviously is was the mother's idea.
The sea tunnel!



Mason beat the clown and got a little toy!

Rachel beat the clown and won a balloon flower!  She then gave it to Mason.  What a sweet sister.
