Afternoon Trip to Guitar Shop & Bike Shop






After lunch, we took a stroll to see some stores we had spotted on one of our bus trips. Harley played a little guitar in a local shop here. He bought himself an electric tuner. Sydney picked up some pics. We took a look at the bike shops. They were primarily mountain bikes shops. No wonder! I don't know where on earth anyone would ride a road bike around here without getting flattened! I'll include a shot of some "bike parking" we spotted on our street tour. I can tell you that bikes and scooters are a major mode of transportation around here. It looks like Specialized may be putting in a new store here in Nanjing soon. Hayden & Piper were up for the photo opp. anyway!

Glad things are going well. It looks like Piper is adapting well. I am so glad things are going as planned. I don't know if you can qualify that as "mexican" Mary. We look forward to seeing you guys when you get home. Be safe and have fun.
