Day 3 - Final day in Beijing

Our last day in Beijing was a lot of fun! After breakfast we walked to the "American Girl Doll Store". It's about the size of Adeline's bedroom at home and packed full of dolls, clothes and accessories. Most items are completely authentic and if they do have a flaw, it's only minor and most of the time you can't notice. The lady who runs the store is super sweet and even remembered me from when we lived here. 😂 Mitchell said I made an impression from being nice or buying way too much...lets go with the first option!

After that excitement, we headed to Hongquo (Pearl Market) for a couple must needed stops. First stop was Po and Liz, our electronics supply source. We topped up new iPad/iPhone cords and a few Christmas presents. After this we navigated our way to the new LuLu location, as she had moved since I was last here. After talking to three different friends, trying a couple of wrong buildings and then finally calling my lady, we made it. 😊 it was fantastic and I got a few treasures!! Such fun!

After our shopping excursion, I took Mitchell to my favorite foot massage place, Bodhi Sense. We had 80 min of complete relaxation, it was such a huge treat!!

We met Jarter and Helena for dinner at Bao Yuan Dumplings and then went back to Jarter's for a super fun and intense game of Settler's of Catan. It was a late night and we only got 3 hours of sleep. Oops!! ​
