Health Check Up Day

We have been in Guangzhou for three days now. As Kennedy says "Everyday in China is a big day!!" Having the Ng's with us takes us to many exciting places here we would never normally see. Thanks to them our pallets have also expanded by leaps and bounds, probably so have our waists. By the end of the day the kids are all so tired, they just fall into bed. It's been a lot of fun. We know next week we'll have alot of down time with everyone leaving so we will make the most of it now. The first day back was a group tour which went to the Buddhist temple for a blessing. We opted out of that to visit a market where the middle to low class buy food. Wow! Pick out your live chicken or fish and have it killed and prepared right before your eyes. How about some live turtle or scorpion as an appetizer?? Once I got over the smell it was very interesting. Then off to group shopping and big reunion pizza party that night. Yesterday was health check up day. Landon did well. He may be far sighted. We will investigate further when we get home. He weighed in at 20.5 kg and 110 cm tall. The afternoon was filled with more sightseeing and shopping with the Ng's. Today was the first relaxing day for the boys and I. Big paperwork day today for daddy- The boys and I did our first school day together, then went exploring round the hotel, as we are right in the downtown erea. Tonight is a dinner and a boat cruise on the Pearl River.
