Archie's new Jie Jie

We had a great time stopping through Shenzhen on our way back home. We got to see some of our friends from our Louisville days. When we first met them, we were the home culture and they were the guests. It was fun for the tables to be reversed as we were the guest culture visiting their homeland. Archie's favorite thing about the trip was his new Jie Jie (older sister). Their little girl is almost five, and Archie was pretty smitten with her. He got ridiculously excited and was always saying, "I hold Jie Jie's hand. I hold Jie Jie's hand!" They walked around hand in hand all day at the park (except for when they were racing each other).

We took the subway from Hong Kong to Shenzhen and went through customs where we got out. Archie likes the subway.

Here is our friend Weiqi holding Grace. It was our first time meeting each other's children since our children had not been born when they were in America, and their little girl wasn't able to come with them.

Here's the group (minus Weiqi who was taking the picture).
