The Sheraton did have really good food. I am just saying that I don't care about food enough to pay American prices while I am here in China. Yep, so thats my thought on that.After I got back from breakfast I decided to travel to the far side of the park. I wanted to see what it had to offer. It had a lot to offer, and I had soooo much fun.
I found another activity that involves no communication what so ever. PING PONG. Rules are the same as in the states, and it is twice as fun when you are playing with someone else who doesn't care about score or winning. Once I started sweating like a piggie out in the sun. The lady noticed and told me I could take off my shirt. Well, as if I didn't stand out enough, now I was really attracting everyone over. Seriously, crouds of people were drawn to this site. LOL. it was classic. 
This little Chinese girl just wanted to practice her English and get her picture taken with the tall funny looking American who plays Ping Pong with no shirt on. After the park experience, my mom and I went to the Shenyang International Church. It is for Passport and Green card holders only. It was great. I learned a valuable lesson about worship time with God also. 
The picture quality is bad because the lighting was not so hott. But the lesson is still as valuable as ever. These three people worshiped God with hearts of praise. They exhaulted him in broken English and If they sang one Key correctly I would be amazed. But it doesn't matter. Any praise or worship music sung to our creator is beautiful music regardless. I learned not to let stupid things like how music sounds get in the way of praising the King of the Earth. I can think of several times where I left Church back at home saying...."man, worship time wasn't too hot today." WOW, that will never happen again. I had a connection at this church with God. Singing the most simple worship songs, with people who just wanted to praise the creator. Very powerful stuff.
