The continuing story

Hello all... well we are home, a few words about what has been happening since my last post. My blog was censored and blocked while I was in China after about the first week. So it was increasingly difficult to post anything, I used several means but could not upload pictures. so with this post I am uploading several and will try to explain them. I had the privilege to work with 2 incredible American doctors at Shepherds Field. Their names were Doctor Anna Moody and Doctor Bill Moody.You will see their picture attached.
I had mentioned before about people wanting to have their pictures taken with me and with my son James, well James and I took a day to ourselves and went to Forbidden city. It was amazing to see, and I stood in Tienanmen square. That was awesome as my grand children say.... we met some great friendly people also. I saw some teens snapping our picture and waved to them, they were so funny, they wanted their picture with us so they took turns standing with us and getting the others to take the picture. It never became annoying and the people were very nice about it, and what a little thing it was. The picture you see of the teen with a big smile is one of the group.
There is a picture of a huge cauldron, this was used at Forbidden city to store water in to fight fires that may happen in the buildings, there were a lot of them scattered throughout the large compound. There were soldiers everywhere within the walls of Forbidden city. The buildings were beautifully painted, the steps were many and the weather was great for walking.
It was a holiday, The Dragon boat festival. So there were many people there. We had a little sprinkle of rain in the early afternoon. there was a large moat all around the city. Lots of statues of dragons.
The pictures of the children are from Shepherds Field, they are out in front of Samaritan Building which houses the clinic. The picture of the hand was the little girl that is pursing her lips to give me a kiss. her fingers are always blue, and if you are a doctor or nurse you will understand her illness just by looking at her fingers. And her smile was as sweet as could be.
In my next post I will talk about Childrens day and post more pictures.
Gods' love to you.
