Sarah Grace: Last China Adventure Part 1 - Beijing with No Passport
http://sarahgracesmith.blogspot.com/2011/08/last-china-adventure-part-1-beijing.html
Wednesday, August 3, 2011. Last China Adventure Part 1 - Beijing with No Passport. Tibet got closed to tourists about a week and a half before we were planning to go so our permits were not granted. Apparently the 90th anniversary of the Communist Party is a big deal. On Saturday, Dad, Geoff, Heidi, and I went to the Dirt Market in the morning where we found some things to buy. In the afternoon, we had a driver take us to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall. We were there in time to have nice afte...

Sarah Grace: School's Out!
http://sarahgracesmith.blogspot.com/2009/06/schools-out.html
Thursday, June 11, 2009. Friday was the last day of school for us. It is a tradition for all of the teachers and staff to come out to wave goodbye to the students as the buses drive away. We also had a bunch of fireworks. We have a lot of buses. Too bad some of the buses have only a few kids on them. I made it through my first year here! That is an insane amount of buses!

Friday, July 1, 2011. I tried to post this several times while I was still in Beijing, but I was having internet connectivity issues.

Different cities in China via train with. My dad, uncle, and aunt. We all returned to California on June 26th. There were a few bumps along the way which I will write about soon!

http://sarahgracesmith.blogspot.com/2011/05/jerilynn-rays-visit.html
Monday, May 9, 2011. Jerilynn and Ray's Visit. We arrived at home just in time to catch the Royal Wedding coverage on CNN! On Saturday, we had a leisurely morning and Jerilynn and I walked over to the grocery store. After lunch, we took a taxi to the dirt market where we had a great time people-watching, checking out all the things for sale, and buying things too. The air quality was not good because of a sandstorm and we had quite a bit of wind blowing us around, but we had a good time. On the way home ...

Saturday, February 26, 2011. Chinese New Year 2011. Chinese New Year fireworks go on every night for two weeks. Some people here start complaining about them after the first few days and quite often by the first week or so. I love them! Are some photos and video I took last year when I lived on the second floor and the fireworks were being set off right outside my window. Here is my video from this year. (I think last year's video. Is better though.). Links to this post. Sunday, February 13, 2011. I also...
