Children lining up in the courtyard before schoolWe had a busy, busy day today! We started off with trying to fit in some more shopping on the island this morning after breakfast, and then we were off with our "buds" Amy and Marc to the Electronic Store and the Pearl Market. We also ventured off the beaten path and went onto some of the street markets. Things are soooo much cheaper here than on the island! After our shopping spree, we made our way back to the hotel to freshen up for our trip to the zoo. We were amazed at how much Chloe loves animals! Her little mouth started running from the minute she saw the first animal to the time we left the zoo....It was too cute to hear her talking! We then hopped our bus and made our way to the Pearl River Cruise. We had dinner onboard, and then were able to go on top of the boat and enjoy the sights of Guangzhou...It was absolutely beautiful at night! I can't believe we are leaving tomorrow...Dan is starting to pack up as I type this...We have our red couch photo tomorrow morning at 9 at the White Swan. We then have to leave the hotel at 2:30 for our Oath Ceremony at the Consulate. After that, our guide Simon will take us to the train station, where we will take the train to Hong Kong and stay the night. Our plane leaves at 10:25 am Wednesday morning, and we arrive in Pittsburgh at 5:58 pm that same day. We invite anyone who would like to be there at the airport to come-we would love for you all to meet Chloe! I will try to post tomorrow if I am able to.
What beautiful pictures! We are sooo happy for you guys! And how cool to run into and meet other RQ go'ers! I look forward to that!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your final trip home. It's 10:00 am here now, so I'm sure you are getting some much needed rest for the flight home. Godspeed and smiles all the way home!
Oh do we have some scrapbooking to do! You will have a whole album for this trip! I love the pics! I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back! Have a safe trip home! Can't wait to see you all! Tam
