I have to backtrack a little bit so we can get caught up on our updates. Sorry for the delay…we know all of you want more photos! Our last full day in Wuhan was a busy one with site seeing. The heat was unbearable. I’ve lived in Florida for 33 years before moving to Michigan, and I can honestly say the heat of South Florida does not begin to compare to the atrocious heat here. I think you can tell by the photos that we look hot, and I don’t mean that kind of “hot!” Oscar on the other hand, always seems to look good in his photos even when he looks crabby; he’s still a cutie pie!

We visited the Hubei Provincial Museum. We especially enjoyed the chime bells show. Oscar woke up just in time for the music and he listened intently through the entire show. I think something magical must have happened because afterwards, Oscar was a changed little man. He walked for us – a lot – all by himself!!! We were so proud. He didn’t seem anxious or clingy. He appeared comfortable and walked through the rest of the museum holding our hands.

We went to see the Yellow Crane Tower and did a lot of walking. Chris had a fever and wasn’t doing too well, but he hung in there for Oscar. Oscar seemed to enjoy Chris carrying him up the steps towards the Tower. This is when Oscar really started to bond more with Chris. We enjoyed the beautiful view from the tower and took many photos. It was very hot and we didn’t think we were going to make it, but we did. So any families getting ready for their Wuhan trip definitely go to the tower and take some photos. It is worth the heat and is probably the best site to visit in Wuhan.
