CHINA - XIAN



The excitement today was that it was Bryan's first birthday. Although nothing was mentioned about it until after lunch so how excited everyone was, I'm not sure. Of course lunch here is at the ungodly hour of 11.30 so it wasn't too late in the day that it was mentioned.

Bryan was happy enough to sit there for a round of birthday photos with the birthday boy hat on but a bit later when we wanted to take photos with the cake & sing happy birthday, he was not impressed (as you can see in the video - & this was before we had even started singing). Strangely enough happy birthday, while sung in Chinese, is the same tune we use in English. Actually I don't know if that's strange at all really, it's just that I presumed they would have a whole different song!
