Who Knew?

Who knew that we would come all the way to China to meet a couple from Chattanooga?

Who knew that you would have a seal living in a tank at your hotel?

Who knew that you had to put your hotel room key into a slot in order to turn on your room lights?

Who knew that the light switches were controlled by buttons on the night stand?

Who knew that you could eat chicken nuggets, steamed sweet potatoes, corn on the cob, or pizza for breakfast?

Who knew that you would travel to the other side of the world to eat McDonalds, KFS or Subway?

Who knew that driving laws where just taken as suggestions?

Who knew that if you got into a fender bender that it was okay just to keep on going?

Who knew that air conditioners were a rarity?

Who knew it was okay to ride in a vehicle with a baby in your arms and not in a car seat?

Who knew that you could go to the market and find dried deer hooves, dried seahorses, snake skin and live turtles?

Who knew that you would have to take a number at the bank and then wait 45 minutes for services?

Love it!!! Oh...it brings me back!! So how long did it take you to figure out how to turn the lights on?! We had to ask our guide when we first arrived in Beijing!!

If it was just like home, there would be nothing worth remembering.
