#141 Weekend

Above are a few random pictures from our average weekend in Suzhou. On Saturday we rented a van to have and extra day of car time to shop and run some errands. I took the boys out for some shopping in downtown Suzhou and for a haircut. Marco got a bit of a bum haircut because my Chinese language vocabulary lacks the skills necessary to say "short on the sides, but not too short". Marco got a standard issue Marine haircut from a Chinese hair stylist with a ponytail. When the guy finished, Marco burst into tears and couldn't recover. I don't think it looks that bad, in fact I think he looks quite handsome in the picture above. Kathleen disagreed and did little to comfort Marco upon his return home.

Before the haircuts, Joseph and did some shopping at the downtown electronics store called U-Town. We bought a new pair of headphones for my iPod and then did some window shopping.

Final activity for the weekend was a puppet show presented by the Cazzato children for our Sunday night after-dinner entertainment. The tongue depressor puppets danced and sang to a Millie Cyrus CD for some extended play dance tunes.
