On Sunday afternoon, we visited the Kunming Expo park. They also have some firecrackers:

2009
2018
We are thankful for the many good friends and special memories during this chapter of life.
Wow, you were just youngsters in 2009!
Wow – I can’t believe it’s been 9 years!
I like your shirt dad! How has it been 9 years? We are all getting old!
Thank you Laurie (for the shirt and for the compliment)!
