Last week, the Crazy Little Stockdale had a field trip to Chinatown.

Kids love the box-o-eels .

And the guy beating the catfish with a club before he cuts the heads off .

And the old guy playing the string.

Today, I got to take the Big Little Stockdale to Chinatown for a field trip.  Her favorites included flattened dried duck .

And buying stuff .

Fortunately/unfortunately, the Middle Little Stockdale also went to Chinatown today for a field trip.  Had it been next Friday, I would have hit the Chinatown trifecta.   Thankfully/unfortunately one of her friend’s mom’s got that job and I was only able to chaperone two field trips this month. 

Her favorites included a styrofoam cooler full of some dead aquatic thing that would never be eaten at the Stockdale house.

And, of course, old guy playing a string.
 

In Kansas City, you go to the apple orchard or pumpkin patch.  Here you go to Chinatown.  There is no difference, more or less.
