Weekend with Auntie Lena & Uncle Henry

We spent Saturday and Sunday with Auntie Lena and Uncle Henry, staying with them at their gorgeous apartment in the prime neighborhood of French Concession.  On Saturday, bright and early, Uncle Henry braved the horrendous traffic and insane drivers, to take us to the village town of ZhuJiaJiao known especially for their yummy pig’s trotters. Then Uncle Henry braved another hour on the road to take us to the neighboring city of Suzhou to visit the silk factory and we ended our day trip at ShanTang Street, a 1,100 year old well preserved ancient street near downtown Suzhou.
