We stopped at the jade factory on the way to the Great Wall. They take huge pieces of jade and carve them into these family balls. They are very intricate. It's 3-4 balls inside of each other that all come from one rock! It takes months to make one. Each ball inside of each other represents family. The kids, parents, grandparents, and great grandparents. We didn't know we were stopping here. We were trying to be coerced(forced) into buying. They must have thought we had lots o moola. Sorry. Wrong people. As she was explaining each statue there was one fat dragon that ate a lot but never used the bathroom. Well she used the word poopoo. Of anything in that place I think that was all the boys heard. No controlling the laughter there
