Thompson Middle School Six Graders

Ni hao! Thanks for joining my family in a very special addition of "Where in the World is Mrs. Mulholland-Bower?". In less then 24 hours my husband and I will begin our trip to meet our new son Noah Li Ming Bower. You cannot imagine how excited we are. As we travel across the world, we're going to see many historical and cultural sites and visit different provinces in China. I'll be leaving you clues to help find where in the world I am. Are you ready?

Since we have a very long flight tomorrow, we will be starting out in Providence and change airplanes two times. Below are the clues for the two change overs and our first destination.
