We visited the Shaolin Temple today. It is the birthplace of Kung Fu. It is a two hour drive each way and traffic is indescribable here. There are lanes, but no one seems to care. There are mopeds, trucks, and little car like vehicles that I don't know the name of all mixed together. People lay on the horn when they pass to prevent the cars next to them from swinging over and sometimes it works. Our bus driver was very skilled, but I still preferred to look out of the side window. While looking out of the side window I saw that as we made our way into some mountains that people actually live in caves. They build doors onto them and hang lanterns as porch lights. I couldn't get a picture because we were moving so fast. I added several pictures from the temple.
My stomach is not sick anymore, it just hurts sometimes. Ty's rash is gone, we ate a good meal for lunch at the Temple, and life is good again. Oh, and Ty called me MaMa several times clear as day, although he stills prefers to be held by Andrew. It is nine and the kids have been asleep for an hour. Tomorrow we leave for Guangzhou at around 6pm, so I will probably skip a day of blogging. We miss everybody and are ready to come home. Eight more days, ugh. I posted more pictures in a separate entry beneath this one.
