#342 Cowboy Birthday

Saturday marked a return to the Taihu Lake Cowboy Club, this time for Joseph's birthday party. Joseph invited four classmates to spend the day at the club. We had a barbecue and birthday cake followed by horseback riding, go karts, and paddleboats.

Maria has talked for ages about wanting to ride a horse and she was very happy when she got her chance. You can see her huge smile above. Unfortunately, some of the activities were off limits to children such as rock climbing, zip lines, and kayaking. For this we felt a little ripped off because we paid full price of $24 entrance fee per kid. It seemed they should have offered half price for the children. Nonetheless, everyone had a good time, and Joseph was a happy birthday boy.

What a great story you've shared of your experience to date! My wife and 3 boys are relocating with me to Suzhou in January and you have inspired us to do the same! It's been enourmously helpful to read about your experiences. If our paths do not cross while we are there, God Bless You and Yours.
