Botanical Gardens, 2013

We got to the botanical gardens in Beijing every year, and each year, we have even more fun. Our buddy arrangement usually pairs a child with a volunteer, but this time some of the children decided that they wanted to be buddies with one another! Of course we didn't stop them, and Mollie and Zoe had a silly time together.


The Xi'an warrior replicas were a fun treat. Asher was in awe. He knows what he wants to be when he grows up now - a warrior!


...or maybe a butterfly? The poor guy is not even three and he's already having an identity crisis.


Lucy and Noah buddied up too!


This was Jonathan's first field trip and he had a blast learning about flowers and butterflies.


After checking out all of the beautiful flowers, we headed out to see the butterflies. Play nice, Joel and Wendy!


Meilin Eliana was especially enamored.



After a yummy lunch at McDonalds, most of the children crashed on the bus ride home. Tired, Henry?



Henry is learning English. Watch the video below to hear one of his favorite English words!



We can't wait to go again next year!
