The Conspiracy!
Note: this post was written by my mother.
I’m not sure if there is a conspiracy going on in the family to do away with me. When I forgot my passport upon leaving Germany, Ross drove at an extra-ordinary fast speed, faster than anyone on the Autobahn. I asked him if he was getting back at me for all the “mother-in-law” annoyances through the years. That trip was BAD, but it pales to my experience today!
Lance took me to the Great Wall of China, dropped me off and said, “You can do it!” THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA! You must be kidding! He wasn’t, so I started my climb up the Wall. Was this his great plan to get me back for all the annoying “Mothering” of his youth? You might be interested to know that I did just fine. I even rode a toboggan back to the starting point with the skill of an olympic athlete, with Lance recording this remarkable event on his expensive camera.
If this seems like a Disney Movie or perhaps a Twilight Zone episode, it isn’t. When I go to bed tonight I’d like to be a fly on the wall (NOT THAT WALL!) to watch my dreams unfold. They should be something else!
If Lance’s itinerary doesn’t settle down, I may not make it out of China in one piece. So goes my remarkable life.
LOVE, MOM

I’m thinking we better alter our plans for the Yueyang leg of your trip, otherwise we are going to seem like the ‘boring’ cousins! I think we can find some ‘extreme’ activities for you around town…

Dad says, “Fine. It’s quite a feat.” (he’s borrowing my running shoes today).
