Huai Feng Nuan- Amy Nuan's Day

                  Saturday, June 30th, 2012  Happy Birthday Kerry Wa

Waiting to go on a tour of Huainan

We are settling into Hefei, a city with 8 million people. It has changed a lot in 9 years. Less bikes, more scooters, more apartment buildings. Things are always in flux in China as the new replaces the old. After filling up at the buffet on the 29th floor with a bird's eye view, we met Zhang Ming who was to take us on a tour in Huainan.The driver brought along Becca, his 5 yr old foster daughter in the Love Without Boundaries program who lives in Hefei. We learned she has a family. She and Ting became instant buddies and played and read books during the 1 1/2 hr ride to Huainan. She was sweet and sang along to pretty Chinese songs. We planned to spend some time with Amy Nuan in her birth town and see some local people and places. We were all thinking about our Kerry Wa on her 5th birthday as we looked at her pictures that Zhang Ming had from visits to the orphanage in May. We had an amazing day with a surprise to share later.
