Eliots Hit the Hai

I had the greatest time with my family last week on their extremely brief trip through Shanghai. We walked around the city, had a taste of true China at Fuxing Park, a taste of retail heaven (read: Barbie Store!) and an even bigger taste of retail hell (read: Fake Market). I finally went to M on the Bund, which yes, had an amazing view of both sides of the Bund.

Here are a couple gems from the visit ... somewhere there is a shot of Daddio getting a mani/pedi too, but sadly its not on my camera.

Why are the Eliot sisters wearing mustaches you might ask? We threw H a Mexico themed 25th bday party, of course. My mom supplied the pinata, pin the tail on the donkey, and all kinds of goodies.

Family minus me at Fuxing Park ... there is an amazing maraca dance party going on behind them in case you cant tell.

Me at Yu Gardens ... I gathered several giggling fans when I did this.

Thats it for now! I'm trying to make these shorter so I post more often. Those of you who know me, though, know that I struggle with brevity.
