Our New Wheels

The trasportation disadvantage of living in the orphanage is that it is quite a bit removed from the small town of Liangxiang. This makes access to simple things such as groceries and restaurants more restricted. The transportation advantage to living at the orphanage is that now that we live outside of 5th ring road in Beijing we are permitted to drive 3 wheeled motorcycles.

This is the 飞鸽. Translation: The Flying Pigeon.
