Taking a stroll in Changsha

Lydia and Daddy in the Dolton Hotel Lobby ready to go strolling.

Dolton Hotel has 47 floors, we were on the 30th floor. Many floors had offices and businesses so the elevators in the morning and evening were super busy. A worker from the hotel would have to serve as the "elevator guard" so people would not overload the elevators.

Walking in a little park down the street from the hotel, not any grass, but pretty stone pathways.


Lots of people going lots of places....had to keep a sharp eye for traffic even on sidewalks you would have scooters beep and buzz by you.



On your mark.....get set.....GO!!! Amazing how there are no helmets, saw many toddlers riding on scooters on parent's laps without helmets too. So how come we get fingers wagged at us if we don't have long pants on Lydia in 90 degree weather. :)

  1. Kara and Rob - yesterday in the airport I found a novel called "The Red Thread" about Chinese adoptions. If you haven't read it - you must! I'll save my copy for you. Love all your pictures. I know you have a real treasure in Lydia. Aunt Carole
