Our last post in China – We’re coming home!!!!

August 30th, 2010

Keiran has cracked his final joke in China:
What did the Shepherd say to his sheep?………..Let’s get the flock out of here!! Hahaha!!

We’ve had 2 days off for good behaviour and spent yesterday just having a bit of a quiet one followed by our last dinner at the Holiday Inn. Keiran had the buffet but I couldn’t face it (really not wanting to eat any more out here).

Today we really had to get out of the hospital to help the time pass, so we went out with the ‘Jameson’ family from Texas. Headed down to Polar Ocean World……..which was a bit of a let down from the last time as we missed the Dolphin Show due to Charlie & the lack of Chinese understanding English & vice versa!!! We then had some lunch in a Hotel downtown – the restaurant was on the 35th floor & revolved (very slowly). The views across the beach were fab!! Then we headed over to Jimmo for a quick stop. For some reason, I wasn’t in the mood for shopping………..strange cos I love shopping lol!!! It just didn’t seem fair to take Keiran into that place – it’s not nice!!

Came back to the hospital, gave our gifts to the nurses & translators. Bless them, they do a gd job bearing in mind the resources they have. We said our goodbyes to some of the families……….it’s quite sad as some of the new faces on the block seem lovely. We’ve exchanged emails & will stay in touch to see how everyones doing.

I AM FINALLY PACKED & can’t wait to come home!!!!!!!!!!! In just over 5 hours we are leaving the hospital!!!! Just a shame that it’s going to take us 21 hours to get home……..

Keiran & I will see you all shortly in Blighty but for now Zàijiàn
