(Andree here: Got this note and the photos this morning.)
Just last summer....
Nancy and I want our kids to be comfortable being world citizens. As soon as Jaeger was old enough to appreciate traveling to other countries, we brought the kids to Taiwan, China, Hong Kong and Thailand.
It was great for me to share a dinner with my family at the Kowloon Swiss Chalet, my favorite place to eat in Hong Kong. I’d eaten there for years so often alone or with associates just wishing my family was with me. The staff at the Hyatt in Dongguan China still ask about my family by name since they stayed there with me for a month while I worked for clients in nearby factories. We brought the kids to a factory so they could appreciate the abilities and talents of the workers.
I thought everyone visiting the erikproject blog would like to see pictures of Nancy’s and my kids and the life that we are helping them to have.
Now, you poor folks, look at my vacation pictures of Lyric and Jaeger!
