Last week we took the family to an amusement park called "Happy Valley". It is about 30 minutes from our house and is China's version of Disneyland. We were a little hesitant about going but actually had a really good time and will probably get season passes. They have a huge water park there that looks fun when it's hot. Right now it is a little too cold for that. When we were there they had a stand with costumes on it. The women working there ran over to Vika and Nicole and dressed them in these costumes. Then of course they said it would be 10 RMB ($1.20) for us to take a picture with our camera or 20 RMB ($2.40)for them to take a picture. We didn't take our cameras so we ended up paying them. Immediately the other Chinese people passing by started taking pictures of them and they weren't even charged. I felt like charging them myself. I would've made the 40 RMB back plus if I did.
Nicole painted this picture of herself from the picture taken above. I thought it was pretty good for an eight year old.

What a fun experience - and Nicole and Vika are beautiful. I would have paid for those pictures. Nicole's painting is very good and has a lot of feeling and color. An artist for sure....
Vika looks so cute and so does Nicole. do wish you could come back to U.T.?
