Pictures from Papa and Bacca's visit PLUS caption contest update

We nicknamed Aimee "Nails" as in "Tough as nails" after she negotiated low prices on sunglasses and a purse for Mom that day.






A few of the highlights:



1. Shanghai zoo



2. Shopping, shopping and shopping



3. Having clothing tailor made at the fabric market. (Check out Papa's new suit and overcoat)



4. Watching the Buckeye/Hoya game Final Four game....LIVE....at 6:08am on Sunday at Bubba's bar & grille in Shanghai. When was the last time you ate BBQ wings at 7:30am?



5. Playing outside



6. Showing Papa and Gramma our life in Shanghai



7. Ryan and Papa playing about 45 games of ping pong over 3 marathon sessions. Each of us one 22.5 games.
