Ace already checked outthe Olympic site with mom last year and Jennie, 26, is looking forwardto returning.

It looks like it right now, he is [coming]. He actually wentwith me a year ago when we went there, so he’s already been there, donethat. So we’ll go back and show him the Great Wall again.

Thedefending gold medalist, who again tells the story behind Ace’s name,knows it’ll be an Olympic feat within itself just getting to China with atoddler.

I know it is [a long plane flight]. He was 2 1/2 months lasttime we went over, and it’s going to be a different story this nextyear.

They went to show a 2 1/2 month old baby the great chinese wall? I find this to be very cute. When I was about that age, my parents showed me the Eiffel tower. Not that I can remember that trip, but it’s nice looking at the pictures.
