Xiamen Adventure: Buddha and Mao
http://xiamenadventure.blogspot.com/2007/08/buddha-and-mao.html
Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Having told you Maya’s reaction to the Jesus portrait, I have to tell a portrait story about Zoe, too. Before we left for China to adopt Maya, we spent time looking through my old pictures from Beijing and China travel books. Zoe was intrigued by the portrait of Mao that hangs above Tiananmen Square – probably because we saw it in practically every guidebook. So by the time we were headed for Tiananmen Square, she was fired up to see the portrait of Mao. Back in Fort Worth, Te...

Xiamen Adventure: May 2007
http://xiamenadventure.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2007. I got a fit of the giggles when I saw this sign for the Feng Li Da Arts and Grafts. Co in the Xiangjiang Shopping Center in Xiamen. It was closed, so I can't tell you if it lives up to its name. But I really appreciated the warning! Wednesday, May 30, 2007. Particularly noteworthy was the day we studied. Loving v. Virginia. Where the Supreme Court held that it was unconstitutional to ban inter-racial marriage because of a fundamental right to marry, and. Lawrence v. Texas. They ad...

Xiamen Adventure: March 2007
http://xiamenadventure.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 31, 2007. As Chinese as Apple Pie. I found out a little more about them on the web at the Xiamen English-language newspaper's site. The name of the article? My Way of Happy Banding! During the sound check, the girls alternated between bopping to the beat and holding their hands over their ears. I'm sure the band members were thrilled with that. Or maybe that's a pretty common reaction to their music! The first group looked pretty spry, though they had run for 38 minutes before reaching us.

Way Off the Wall (Life in Xiamen Fujian China): StrongVPN no Longer so Strong--but have 1 10X faster!
http://offthewallchina.blogspot.com/2014/09/strongvpn-lifesaver.html
Wednesday, September 17, 2014. StrongVPN no Longer so Strong- but have 1 10X faster! Sorry- I've withdrawn the recommendation I made in the blog entry below for StrongVPN. StrongVPN has also been excruciatingly slow. So now we're on AstrillVPN! It is amazing- 2 devices for the price of 1 at StrongVPN, and I've compared them side by side. When StrongVPN is downloading at 30 or 40 kbs, Astrill VPN. Is at 300 or 400 kbs! Better yet- Astrill VPN. I hope you'll find Astrill VPN. Though I love living here.
