Time with the rents (part 1)

Well, as I think I may have mentioned before, my parents came to visit for two weeks.  I'm proud to say that they did very well and have earned all the merit badges a traveler needs for their first visit to Asia.

Chopsticks - check.

Even though they came prepared with titanium sporks, there was no need.  Mom and Dad toughed it out and got used to the chopsticks right away - by the end they were total pros.

Sushi - check.  Although they've tried it before, I think they actually enjoyed the sushi and sashimi this time.  Here's Mom with a piece of raw salmon.

Pearl drinks - check.  They are totally in love with the boba and Mom says she is going to try to find it at Cub.

Pandas - check.  We went to see the panda exhibit and got a great show.  I will probably have a video example of the panda antics once I download the rest of their photos.

Sightseeing - check.  Here they are in Macau Tower.  Although a lot of tourists go up to the lookout, I doubt many of them lay on the floor to take pictures.  (I bet the Chinese people were horrified!  They never let anything touch the floor - ever.)

Lots of walking and climbing hills - check.  They also mastered the bus system, airports, ferries, passport procedures, and by the end they could find their way around quite well without any help from me.

Quality family time - check.  We had many great adventures while they were here. 
More to come!
