Unfortunately, after 3 consecutive raining days, lots of areas in Shanghai was flooded, including my school!  It happened on the first day of this new school year, and the school was closed for 3 days.

Happy Birthday to Grandpa!

We are leaving the next day, so we were celebrating Grandpa's birthday tonight.  We went to a fancy Japanese sushi place, and had a cake at home.  Grandpa, wish you health and happiness always!

Lunch with Grandpas

That was the first time that Mibao met with my other Grandpa. She was so curious that she kept looking back and forth between two grandpas.  So funny!

Grand aunties and aunties' visit

Grand aunties and aunties came to have spicy hotpot and BBQ with us.  We had lots of laughters and it's really fun to see them.

Going back to Asia

The summer vacation has come to the end, and we are ready to go back to Asia.  We were lucky to take Economy Plus from ORD to HKG and Business class from HKG to Shanghai.  We got to go to the lounge.  Very nice!

See you next summer!

What a small car!

For the last two days of this summer, we only got this mini car.  Really small and we were glad that we didn't need to go on the highway.

See you again

Great visiting you, Nathan and Natalie.  Hope to see you again soon.

National Mall

Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, FDR Memorial, World War II Memorial, MLK Memorial, and White House from distance.  A very thorough historical tour.

That's how I was sworn in as a junior ranger.

Baltimore Inner Harbor and Fort McHenry

Dad had lived in Baltimore for 4 years from year 1996 to 2000.  Mom was a frequent visitor of the city at that time.  She hadn't been back since 2000, and we came here to recall the memory.  

We took the water taxi to Fort McHenry.

Fort McHenry was the birthplace of the US national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner".  It serves an important role in early American history.

Mount Vernon

We visited Uncle Yiyu, Auntie Yichun and Nathan & Natalie in Bethesda, MD.  They took us to George Washington's house Mount Vernon to start our history tour.
