Visiting with the Aunties!

On Danny's parents final day with us in China, they wanted to invite the aunties (my mother-in-laws mother's brother's daughters - aunties is much easier!) from Beijing for a lunch in Tianjin. We booked a private room at Din Tai Fung! This turned out to be a fantastic idea because the kids could play their DS's while the adults talked!

The youngest daughter had lived in Canada for 9 years, so her English was excellent. Her sisters seemed to understand English, but they did not speak it! We all had a wonderful time enjoying a huge lunch and listening to stories about my mother-in-law's uncle who was a prominent professor at Peking University. It is not every day that you get to spend time with your relatives while you are halfway around the world, so I am sure it meant a lot to my in-laws!! I was also thrilled to meet them. It is nice knowing we have family in Beijing in case we would ever need anything! Even though we don't know them very well, family is family!!

This was a perfect ending to a great visit with Danny's parents!!
