Harbin







We spent New Year's in the frozen North, Harbin, Northern China about as close to Russia as you can get....about as cold as you can get too. We braved the icy conditions to see the fantastic cities of ice and world renown snow sculptures. But the best was the tiger sanctuary. Incredible!The town (8 million) has a Russian history and it was very fun. We will be happy to fly "south" tomorrow for our Southern China vacation. Click for more photos

WOW!!!!! Thanks for the "click for more pictures".... and what pictures!
You can put together your own book when you return. LIONS, AND TIGERS, AND BIG DOGS, AND BUNDLED DOLLS! Had to be quite the trip! Thanks for sharing, and doing, and caring. (The student pictures were so tender.)

Amazing places and pictures! Thanks for keeping us up to date on your adventures. The 'ice city' looks really impressive at night with the lights -- only seeing you all so bundled up I was shaking from the cold just looking at the pics!

Love you! Be safe, have fun and stay warm on your travels.

Julie and Terry! We miss you guys! Yeah it is wierd being home! It is almost like we never left. The plane ride is soooo long! Adam and I have been on a crazy sleeping schedule! That would be so fun to go to the Island or Thailand! Either place is great! But I would go to Thailand! You haven't been and it is so cheap and fun and a new place to visit! Just make sure you have a page in your passport. :> We had so much fun with you guys! We can't wait till you get home so we can hang out!!! We love you guys! You are the best adopted parents ever! haha
