Heartwarming reunion!
In 1999, on the streets of Taiyuan, a father captured a photo of his 3.5-year-old daughter at a humble fruit stall.
Forward 27 years: the now-adult daughter rediscovered the old picture. Her sister recognized the vendor—the same uncle, still selling fruit, now 50 years old and running his own small fruit shop.
They visited together recently. He offered a discount on their purchases and even gifted a box of sweet persimmon cakes as a warm gesture.
BREAKING: President Trump said Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife were "captured and flown out of the Country" early Saturday morning, confirming a "large scale strike" had been carried out by U.S. forces, as explosions were reported in Caracas and elsewhere.

One Saudi prince took things to the next level for his avian flying companions where he reportedly purchased individual seats for each of his 80 falcons.
Transporting falcons in the Middle East is a pretty common practice. Falconry - training birds to hunt - has been practiced in the Middle East for thousands of years and is still a popular pastime in the United Arab Emirates.
Falcons can get their own passports from the UAE to travel that allows them to travel to Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Morocco, and Syria. The passport is valid for three years.
