6th Dec – Free Day & 1 Day left to Go!!! WooooooHooooo!!
Yesterday was a Free Day & we ventured out to the Open Market. Not an experience I would want to do again! It’s very crowded & motorbikes & cars drive through; directly at you!!! After about an hour we’d had enough & came back to the hospital. Which was rather lucky as Keiran had to go for an ECG (which was not on the schedule as it was a free day).
Today was a ‘free day’ and we booked Charlie (company driver) to take us, Michelle, Chris, Amy & Hannah downtown to Underwater World & May 4th Square. It was lovely to be able to spend one of our last day’s with an amazing family. When I look at Amy; she brings a smile to my face & Keiran loves to spend time with her – as they Burp & laugh at each other! We are going to miss them immensly BUT we are lucky that they live in Essex & will be able to spend time with them again soon. They can’t get rid of us that easily LOL! Thanks guys for a very enjoyable day………..
Keiran enjoyed watching the fish swim around as they swam passed him quickly in the tanks. The jellyfish were lit up red.
When we are home I will post some photo’s on his website………..I’ve not had access to his webpage since we’ve been in China. After Underwater World, we went to McDonald’s & then down to May 4th Square & Keiran enjoyed listening to very small waves rippling & crashing on the shore. We looked over the bay where the 2008 Olympic Sailing was held.
We came back to the Hospital & received our schedule for the week LOL – Only 1 day to go!!!!! Keiran has got therapy with Forest tomorrow & a visit from Dr Apple & that’s it…………….we have been given parole & we leave early Tuesday morning!!!! Our journey in China is coming to an end. It has been like a roller coaster BUT we’ve met some fantastic people & some amazing children………..it will be sad to say goodbye but we wish every single one of them Good Luck with their journeys.
Keiran has learnt another 2 x letters – S & C!! Although, I’m not sure if I mentioned that these are about 4-5″ in height. Not bad in 3-4 days. My fingers & toes are crossed that things keep developing.
I’ve managed to start the packing this evening. Knowing me I’ll be rushing around like a headless chicken tomorrow flapping that I’ll run out of time.
Time for bed for me now – Will try & post again tomorrow before we leave.
