After the Forbidden City, James and Scarlett toured the hutong by rickshaw. Laura and Lee chose to stay on the bus as they were cold and wet. We have no idea what James and Scarlett saw, but we had a great time people watching from the bus! Garbage pickup was done on a tricycle-type thing with a box on the back. The man used some huge wooden tongs to pick up trash and place it on the box on the back. He also had a brush broom (think witch's broom and you will have the type) to sweep up trash. I'll try to get the photo from Mom.
We saw lots of interesting car models that are not available in the states: a Nissan Bluebird, a Daewoo Retard bus (no kidding!), some cute, cute mico-mini vans that Laura fell absolutely in love with (I gotta get me one of those!).
James and Scarlett came back from the hutong with a horror story of a misplaced camera - James had left it on the rickshaw but got it back. Strangely, it had a photo of their rickshaw driver on it.
My girl and my hubby.
The rickshaw driver - a most helpful fellow, according to James.

Oh how thrilling, it is just hours until you will be a family of four. I am bathing you in prayer. I rejoice with and for you and in our amazing God that you are so filled with love. I am itching to see you holding Jackson.
Love you all, Patty
I am stalking your blog....living through your experiences...remembering the sights, sounds and feeling! Praying for your little man as well!! Much Love dear friend.....Heather (MDMOM)
Stalking...A perfect word. I am continually stalking your blog, also! :)
So thrilled for Scarlett to be having all of these experiences in her birth country. Such an amazing thing for a little girl. I wonder how she will process it all upon returning home - and what things had an impact on her. Very cool.
Praying for Jackson's sweet little heart to be comforted and prepared to meet his new family. Praying for all of you to be ready to meet your new son/brother. Will be a beautiful day. I'm sure no one can wait more than you all.
With love, anxiously awaiting to hear of those first lovely moments together as a family of four.
Have I mentioned lately how excited I am for you?!?!?!? :)
Hugs, hugs, hugs!

Talked to Laura this morning. She is having trouble getting a connection at her hotel. She got Jackson abt 3:00 today and everyone is doing well. Scarlett and Jackson bonded right off. She will post when she can.
