Thoughts: First Day
-I miss my mom.
-Noodles are eaten for every meal.
-People here are so polite.
-You can get a nice, juicy pomegranate for a fraction of the cost you'd find in the U.S. Awesome!
Tay's thought:
-"Why do I bother getting dressed when everyone stays in their pajamas all day?" (It's true, I can't tell you how many people we saw on our first day who were in their matching pajama set and sandals in the store, at breakfast, walking down the street in the middle of the day...
Thoughts: Second Day (Looking out my balcony at 5:30 AM)
-It's so light at this early hour.
-I sure hope that's humidity hanging thick in the air and not smog.

lovely lady, i am glad that you got back ok. i can't imagine how much i would miss my mom too. hang in there. you should get yourself a nice set of pj's :)
just wanted to let you know we found your blog! Glad to hear that you traveled the world and made it to your destination all right. Wish I could get away with wearing my pj's all day!
We miss you! It must be awesome to see how other people do life. Better stock up on noodles and pj's! (and politeness- you know I'm kidding!)
Hey Jen needles to say when I saw your blog I had to cry. specially when you said I miss my mom. Well guess what I miss you too, but I am so happy for you and I know you are happy and that is the most important thing right now. You have a great husband that makes you very happy. We love both of you Mom and Dad.
What an adjustment!
I've been going through some mourning about moving and culture shock myself, and only now am I starting to feel 'normal' again. Vermont is like its own country, but my transition is much different than I'm sure yours will be.
Good luck! We have been thinking of you!
I am glad to hear you got there ok. We can't wait to hear about all of your adventures! Can you guys email me your new address? I forgot to get it from you before you left.
Glad to hear you arrived without any trouble. In family prayers Jenna has been saying stuff like, "Please bless Jen and Taylor in China." and "Help them to have fun in China" It's really pretty cute. I'm exited to hear more about your adventures--the good, the bad and the just plain UGLY! :-) Carpe Diem!
I'm glad you made it there safely! I'm so sad that I didn't get to say goodbye! We have to plan something when you come home is December.
Be safe! We love you guys!
