The three of us played Runescape on the laptop after packing. It's a fun game. Jinxgirl's folks took forever to pack. We then went to the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall. Dr. Sun Yat-Sen was known as the Republic of China's National father as he led the revolution against the Munchurians.
We visited various rooms in the Memorial Hall with artefacts from that era as well as oral and verbal accounts of events that occurred in the course of the revolution.
After we had visited most of the rooms, we went for lunch at a buffet upstairs. It was simply scrumplicious! The three of us challenged Jinxgirl's dad to a riddle duel, telling each other riddles and trying to solve them. He didn't stand a chance against us.
After lunch, we visited a room filled with calligraphy and art works. The amazing art works were awe-inspiring. Unfortunately, no cameras were allowed. SIGH.
Before we knew it, we were headed for the airport. During the one hour journey there, the adults slept while the three of us tried to see who could count up to the largest triangle number. Jinxgirl obviously won, beating me by two numbers.
In the airport, we settled at Starbucks and played Runescape (what else?) An hour later, we entered the boarding gate. Boarding was delayed for about half an hour so Jinxgirl read The Magykal Papers with us reading over her shoulder.
When we finally got on, guess what? Take off was ALSO delayed! When we finally took off, we alternated between playing Jinxgirl's handphone and reading Sister's Keeper. Finally, Jinxgirl got a headache and said she wanted to sleep.
Landing was delayed too. The plane circled the airport for about fifteen minutes before it could land. At the baggage collection, surprise surprise! Our baggage took an ETERNITY to appear. Caleb fell asleep and we wheeled him out with the luggage. By the time we got to bed, it was 2 am.
