Joan and Kirk in China

Mike's parents came for a visit in November. We ran them ragged but had a great time. We went to Xi'an to see the Terricotta Warriors. It is AMAZING!!!

To get to Xi'an we took the night train. Each tiny compartment has four small beds. You board the train, go to sleep and when you wake up you are there (give or take an hour). The kids had a great time on the train and we will definitely travel this way again.
We also went and saw a Kong Fu show. Afterwords we had our picture taken with the cast.
We took Joan and Kirk to a few different parts of the great wall so that they could see some of the renovated wall and some of the original crumbling wall.
