THE BIG SHOW......

Here it is folks, the moment you've all been waiting for! "LIVE FROM CHI-NA , IT'S THE ATKINS FAMILY !" (imagine the SNL intro here/ or the Adam's Family intro song, either one works). In previous posts I mentioned that we were finagled into singing in front of thousands of Chinese at our university. And we had to sing in Chinese. A few weeks ago we posted a video of the performance which you can still see, but we didn't have any good pics of the show. until now....

Here are the long awaited for shots of us singing "Beijing Wei Ying Ni!" It's a huge hit over here, even Jackie Chan sang part of it in the Olympic Ceremony! All their big celebs did in fact, except Yao. This was their Olympic Theme song and everyone here knows it. And now, we do too! sort of. Needless to say it was a bit nerve racking but after all was said and done it was a fun experience.
At the end of the show they called us back out and we gave a big standing ovation as they played some music, set off fireworks and confetti was everywhere. Good times indeed!
Pictured are Amanda, Josh and Ashley Ostini, and Harry Yang, Chelsea from Canada can also be seen next to me.
Well, enjoy the pics- Keep checking in for more updates.
