Monday

Hello everyone. Today we visited Tiananmen Square, which was very cool to see. Tons of people there, and a bit hot. You can see by Liam's expressions in the pictures that he wasnt' very impressed. Everyone wants to take his picture and touch him and he is getting tired of being a rock star. We went to Pizza Hut tonight and a girl about 18 years old kept kissing him and hugging him. I saw the neatest invention here. All little kids wear split pants, which are pants or shorts, split at the crotch so when they have to go, they just squat and go, wherever they are. No washrooms, no diapers..I'm trying to find a couple pair in my size so if I do...don't walk behind me anywhere. Ella was a little out of sorts the last couple days, but she was much better today. Hopefully getting used to us "big noses", as we are called here. I've recovered from climbing the Great Wall yesterday. I can't believe the thing has been there for 2500 years and they still haven't put in an elevator. I think I've figured out the photo thing, so I will post more tomorrow.
