Barbie in China, #3

OK, so the BIG DAY dawned sunny and beautiful. Barbie and Ken looked out the hotel window for a while and watched the city.

Barbie was so excited for her friends and the new baby girl they were going to adopt, ...well, she was so excited she could barely stand up! (Barbie has trouble standing up on her own anyway.)


So first, they consulted the map for a before setting out... Ken wasn't always good about asking directions and they certainly didn't want to get lost today!!
.
On their way out, in the lobby of the hotel, they saw a long red velvet couch. It was tradition for newly adopted babies to have their picture taken on this couch.
.
Ken wanted to try it out. He didn't think it was remarkably comfortable. Barbie reminded him it wasn't the sort of couch where you hang out and watch football... {sigh} Ken!!
.
Since the streets were busy, their friends let Ken and Barbie ride in the stroller. They even held a sippy cup for the baby. Ken mused to himself that the baby must be very large to have such a huge sippy cup.
.
Well, finally they reached their destination... and after paperwork and things Barbie didn't really understand, finally their friends had their darling little baby safe in their arms.
She was so cute!! Everyone was SO HAPPY! (and Barbie told Ken she wasn't nearly as giant as he had been thinking...)
.
On the way back to the hotel, Ken and Barbie graciously let Baby ride in the stroller. It was a good thing, because after all the excitement, she fell asleep! She was SOOO cute... did we say that?
.
When they got back to the hotel, the babies had to have their picture taken on the famous red couch.
Barbie thought all the babies looked MUCH better on the couch than she and Ken had. Ken said the babies didn't like the couch any more than he had, they were all crying!!
.
The next day they started home. What a great trip - one that Barbie and Ken (and of COURSE their friends) will never, ever, ever forget!
