China 2019 Last Day

We had an awesome time in Beijing... the 3rd morning we checked out of our hotel and headed to another train station.  We were heading back to Shanghai.

This time our train was a bullet train that took 4 hours.
It was cool driving through the countryside, rice fields for as far as you could see.


Once again our hotel was right outside of the train station terminal.  This hotel was our swankiest... Cordis Shanghai Hongqiao.


Super nice... modern... all the amenities and super cool technology.

We had a pretty lazy day today, we visited the mall by our hotel.  So many funny, random things in that mall.


We enjoyed a great meal.


But passed on these...


Had Shane's favorite from his mission.
Bings...
It's like a shaved ice cream.  Delicious!


Lydia's dream car... a Tesla.
Actually maybe it's all my girls dream car.


Lydia made some cute little friends.


Random food pics from the week.


Our hotel pool was pretty great.


Then just like that our trip was over and we headed back to the USA on our 14 hour flight.
Which was just fine, except for poor Tay who was in so much pain with her ears (her eardrum burst later that night) :(:(:(

What an adventure.
Bucket list for sure.
It was SOOOO worth it, we had a blast!
China is cooler than I could have imagined!

Hey Shane, thanks for speaking Chinese, we would have been lost all week without you!

We did set the bar a little too high though... cuz now the girls are wondering when we'll be taking on Hong Kong and Japan... Disneyland of course. ;)
