Happy Birthday Baba and Consulate Appointment

Hi everyone,
First, a BIG happy birthday to my hubby! He is home holding down the home front while I am here getting the girls. A big thank you to my sister who made a cake and sent it over! :-)
 
Yesterday we had a full day of shopping on Shamain Island, then went on a cruise on the Pearl River with one other family from our travel group.
 
Today we had to get up super early this morning for our Consulate Appointment. After the appointment our guide took us to the Pearl market to buy pearls to put away for Alexa  and Avery's weddings some day. The other families wanted to go back to Shamain Island again. This afternoon we hung out in the room. I started the packing process, the girls played and Robert napped.
 
This evening we had dinner at an Italian Restaurant, which was pretty good. We had heard there was a Hagen daz ice cream place across the Street, so in celebration of Baba's birthday, we made the long trek over there for dessert. We sang happy birthday to Baba, in a combination of both English and Chinese, while we ate our ice cream.
 
Tomorrow we finish packing then leave for the train station at 3 pm for our 530pm train ride to Hong Kong.
 
We are on the home stretch and we can't wait to get back home!!!

Sightseeing in Guangzhou

 We went out sightseeing today with the three other families in our travel group. It was Hot! There were fans throughout and everyone stopped at the fans and didn't want to move!
 
After sightseeing we all had lunch together at a Chinese restaurant.  After lunch we had some down time at the hotel, before we met in a meeting room to organize our applications and paperwork to apply for the girls Visas to come home.
 
Now we are hanging out in the room watching "The Pleasant Goat" cartoon with the girls.
 
Tomorrow we leave the hotel at ten am to shop at Shamain Island.
