I’m so grateful we’ve been coming into Qingdao on Saturday rather than making the early morning journey on Sunday.

As the blankets for the homeless have yet to be given out we continued to break them in. I’ve become quite adept at sleeping on hard surfaces, there is no way I could play the part of the princess any more, I’d never even think about the pea!  To save money Victoria kindly let us crash on her floor.

Nothing like a sleepover! No worries Katie was in the Middle.

We awoke at Victoria’s to just wonderful weather!

This view just made me want to crawl back under the covers.

Really if you can’t hear the sarcasm just dripping from the text please just move to the next post, I’d hate for someone to get the wrong idea of how I feel about this weather.
 
The only thing great about this view was the fact that the temperature had to have risen to allow snow so it was warmer than the day before. Also the snow was falling vertically so the wind had died down.
See I’m learning to be positive.
 
The trek to church seem to turn treacherous once we reached the apartment complex. We meet up with the Yoon’s on the bus so we were quite the pioneer party crossing through the high path.

Everyone had a buddy the kids seemed to have the best balance on the ice.

We eventually all made it. Luckily we had started out early the bus was packed and the final trek we all took cautiously. The ground always seems to turn to ice before it snows so even with fresh snow it seems slick.
