Little bit of a fun, and a little bit of serious today. First, Alex's "johns island" feet earn their first starring role in one of his videos! Thankfully, no close-ups.
On a more serious note, Alex gives us a little glimpse of what it's like to be a follower of Christ in a communist country - interesting stuff.
So a bit of a backlog this weekend because Ryan and I were in a little move this week - just to another country, nothing major ;)!
So more Alex than you ever wanted this week, it's almost like being his sibling, hmmm; no, actually, I'm afraid it is a very small group of us who can claim to have survived that experience :)! We have a support group. No, no, Alex is a fantastic brother. And as we have already established, I'm a really fantastic sister. And since it's Mother's Day, we must give credit where credit is due, we have a super, fantastic, amazing mom! Thanks mom! Happy Mother's Day from China!
I have the password . . . so I have the power ahahahahahaha (insert maniacal laugh here)!
Well, for the time being I'm afraid y'all are stuck with me as your trusty Alex-updater as China apparently blocks both "Blogger" and Facebook - commies ;). Here's a couple more videos from Alex - he even makes an appearance in one!
This first one is the group out for some dumplings. Alex says the food is pretty good, but that you kind of start to smell like it after awhile. They have also seen, but not yet tried some unusual dishes containing animal parts not commonly consumed by humans, or anyone else for that matter, in the states. Cow stomach sounds pretty interesting, as well as the "Hot Pot" - you sit around a pot filled with really hot spices and dip really weird foods into it, like the cow's stomach, or clotted blood, or my personal favorite - pig throat. Ewwwwwwww . . . hopefully if Alex does try any of these delicious delectables he videos his reaction - a reality tv show is born :)!
This next video the man himself makes an appearance! Enjoy!
