Little Miss is now living in the city of Wuhan in the Hubei Province. Wuhan is the largest city in central China with a population of 9.1million people. It is also known as one of the three "furnaces" of China....so that means its going to be HOT!!! and HUMID!!!!
This is the Yellow Crane Tower located in Wuhan it is considered one of the great towers in China and a very popular tourist destination. The original tower was built in 220A.D it was destroyed many times and rebuilt.
This is East Lake, I love this picture....and really hope that we will have a chance to visit this park apparently the park has some wonderful walking paths and rare vegetation, as well as botanical gardens and museums.
Apparently the Yangtze River and the Han River intersect in Wuhan, there are many bridges and the city seems to be almost surrounded by water.
We are getting really excited to travel to Addison's birth country. I have been trying to do some research on her birth province and city she was born in. We hope to tour and take alot of pictures for Addison to see when she grows up and has questions. We will see how the touring goes....if she is up for it and the temperatures aren't too hot:0) Anyways I thought I would share with you all a little bit of what I have learnt thus far.
Looks like a beautiful city... we did as much sightseeing as possible. Lilah loved getting out and being outside, being in the room too much is overwhelming. How exciting... it is getting so close.

Oh, wow! You absolutely must read River Town by Peter Hessler if you get a chance... it's one of my favorite books and is set in Wuhan. Can't wait til you travel.
