Day 13 -- Final day in China

Roger:  Today we had the privilege of spending time with some good friends who are currently living in China.   It was both cool and strange to see them here.  It's crazy how things work out sometimes.

We had lunch at Lucy's (notice a trend yet) and then off to IKEA...yes we went to IKEA in China.  They needed a few things for their apartment so we loaded up their 5 kids and our 3 and went shopping. 



Yes..on the left side of the picture you see my beautiful wife and daughter...but take a look at the lady setting on the bed...that is her child taking a nap in an IKEA display bed....only in China.
The shopping carts get their own ride

We returned to the hotel after our IKEA adventure and headed to the playroom so the kids could release a little energy while Papa John's was making our pizza.
  
The whole gang

One last look at the river before goodbyes
It was a good last day here in China...glad we could share it with some people we love.

Oh yeah...we got Emily's paperwork back from the US Consulate...

I think we aren't suppose to open this.

Now...off to finish packing....
