Another new post!

As you can see, I have totally updated my blog.  I have more entries to add, more photos to upload and more photos to add to previous posts.

Please leave comments and let me know what you think!

It's fun going back and reliving moments whilst writing about them and reviewing photos.  I should really try to keep it more up-to-date!

In other news, Matt's parents are in China!  Their plane has landed and they are probably wandering around the airport as I type.  Here's hoping they survive their first few days alone in Shanghai before they come to Suzhou on Wednesday to spend a week with us and let us play tour guides!!

Suzhou Laser and Water Fountain Show

Matt and I were out exploring one night and discovered Rainbow Walk on Jinji Lake.  Rainbow Walk has many pubs and restaurants and is built beside the lake.  There is a large, open area opening onto the lake with a heap of weird things sticking out of the water.  We thought that it was perhaps a super-sized fountain, but had no idea!  Upon further internet research, Matt discovered that every Friday and Saturday night at 8pm they have a spectacular water fountain and laser show, set to music.  We went along one night to check it out!  It was also a great excuse to eat dinner at Rainbow Walk.
