A Visit to China

Well, sort of... We finished our dinner with the Princesses in Norway and headed next door to China. My princess is looking out over the water before venturing in....



Here she is in front of the Temple of Heaven in Epcot..


Here are the two of us in front of the Temple of Heaven (in Beijing) two years ago...hmmmmm, it looks a little more run down LOL This was taken a couple of days before we met our daughter : )


Inside she decided to model in front of the terra cotta soldiers



then sit on one of their laps



The ceiling is absolutely beautiful with the intricate tile work



Obviously the floor underneath that ceiling was made for spinning. A funny thing started happening while we were at DW.... when she had on her princess dress and spotted a circle on the ground she immediately ran to it to spin. Hey, a princess is allowed to show off, right?



We can't wait to take her to the 'real' Temple of Heaven someday.

Oh yes! You will have to take her to see the China's version "Temple of Heaven" when she's a little older. I'll come to! Will make a pit stop in Taiwan & Vietnam. LOL!

Love it.....Sophia asks me to take her to China all the time....I find it amazing. She always tells me she wants to go to the Great Wall.
