Recap: Duggars in Beijing, China

On tonight's episode of 19 Kids and Counting "Duggars Do Asia"...

• Jim Bob organizes his family's suitcases to prepare for the three-and-a-half hour flight from Kyoto, Japan, to Beijing, China.
• While riding the subway to Tiananmen Square, the Duggars rely on "buddy teams on steroids," as Jim Bob calls it. Frank Sun, a member of the film crew, helps the Duggars navigate China.
• The Duggar dad tells his little ones how to act when the family is approached by fans.  "We're going to be kind of like a tourist attraction," he says.
• "Always smile," says Michelle. "Be very gracious."
• The subways in China are much more crowded than the subways in the United States, but they are a whole lot cheaper. Twenty-four tickets cost the Duggars less than $8.
• "You just squish in, and they make space," says Michelle.
• "The person that was going to squash me, I was going to squash them back," says Jackson.
• On day two, the Duggars take a bus to the Great Wall of China. They spend the night in Gubeikou Village, a rural Chinese village. During dinner on the night of their 4th anniversary, Josh and Anna sneak away to take the pregnancy test that Anna purchased in Japan. It comes back negative, and Anna admits that she is a little bummed, but the couple does not regret their decision to trust God with the size of their family.
• When they return to Beijing, the Duggars find out that Courtney Enlow, coordinating producer of 19 Kids and Counting, is in labor. Jana, studying to be a doula, and Jill, studying to be a midwife, are eager to help.
• "Jill literally pushed Courtney through the halls of the hospital," says Scott, Courtney's husband and the crew's director of photography.
• It's a girl! Scott and Courtney get a quick glimpse of Leah Adee Enlow, 5 pounds 10 ounces, but are not reunited with her until three-and-a-half days later.
• After the baby is born, the Duggars venture out into Beijing once again. The entire family cringes when soundman Jim Goodwin eats a scorpion.
• Towards the end of the show, the Duggars bring backpacks, shoes, and love to a Chinese orphanage. "I think love is universal, and happiness is universal," says Anna. "It's really special to be here."
• "Our hearts just really went out to those kids," says Jinger.
• Would the Duggars consider adopting? "We have been praying about that, and so our hearts are open," says Michelle. Stay tuned!
• Before they leave China, the adorable Leah Adee Enlow is released from the hospital and introduced to the family.
• "After three weeks away, we will all be very happy to be home," says Michelle. Two days after returning to Arkansas, Anna's pregnancy test comes back positive! Grand-Duggar #3 is due on June 7th.

Duggars' Asian Adventure Ends Tonight

Watch the last part of the Duggars' overseas expedition, tonight on TLC. 

19 KIDS AND COUNTING: DUGGARS DO ASIA (Beijing, China)

9PM EST/PST (8PM CST) 

The Duggars are off to Beijing, China. The family of 25 struggles to navigate the city’s subway system and make it to Tiananmen Square, where they become a tourist attraction themselves. A trip to the Great Wall of China and a local village give the Duggars a traditional Chinese experience and a chance for Jim Bob to show off his haggling skills as the family collects souvenirs. And no trip to China is complete without experiencing some traditional foods, including Peking duck and the more exotic, scorpion! At the end of the trip, Jana and Jill put their midwifery training to work when a member of the television crew suddenly goes into labor. And the family has one final stop – a visit to an orphanage, which is sure to be remembered.

Why do you think that the Duggars' trip to the orphanage "is sure to be remembered?"

Duggars Visit Great Wall of China

This fall, the Duggars took a trip to Japan and China to celebrate Michelle's 46th birthday. And what's a trip to China without a visit to the Great Wall of China?

On Monday, September 24th, the Duggars met up with guides from the Great Wall Adventure Club and spent the day on the Jinshanling section of the wall.

The Great Wall Adventure Club published an extensive account of the trip to their website.

After a delicious dinner it was time for some cultural activities, such as paper cutting. Mama Shi, whose courtyard hosted the Duggars and her daughter-in-law, showed Michelle and three of her boys how to cut rabbits and fish with paper. Michelle and the boys were very focused and finished the cutting assignment perfectly.

Everyone was in bed by 9:30, which must be a record for the Duggars, a family of night owls.

On Tuesday, the Duggars toured the Mutianyu Great Wall.

There they purchased plastic raincoats, Chinese hats, sunglasses, and other souvenirs from a local vendor.

Jim Bob didn't know that he should negotiate the ridiculous prices that were offered. Once he was warned by us, he started [to] haggle big time.

Before lunch, the Duggars looked on as Great Wall Adventure Club’s founder and CEO Terrence Ou proposed to his girlfriend, Vivian Liu, on the Great Wall.

That afternoon, the family ran into traffic on their way back to Beijing.

When the Duggar Family arrived back at the Grand Hyatt a little after 5, all the children made a mad dash for the restrooms.
