In Guangzhou

Last night we arrived in Guangzhou. By the time we got settled into our room, it was almost midnight. We were all exhausted!
 
This morning we met the guide and two other families to go to get the girls their medicals. This allows the girls to come to the US.   Now we just wait for the TB blood test results.
 
 The rest of the day we are on our own. We explored the hotel, had lunch and relaxed at Starbucks for awhile. We also found a few shops and bought a couple Chinese kids DVDs. It is a rainy day, so a great day to stay inside and watch the dvd's.
 
The Garden Hotel is huge! There is a Sbux across the Street. There is a McD, Pizza Hut, Subway and many other restaurants nearby.
 
Someone asked if the girls will eat American food. When we go to Pizza Hut the girls share either a noodle or fried rice dish. Avery  shovels the food in as fast as possible. It is hard to explain, but just imagine a vacuum cleaner hose. She eats every single noodle or grain of rice on her plate. Then she asks for pizza!
 
Alexa tried the pizza, but doesn't seem to like it. She takes her time eating. Alexa eats a lot less than Avery. She definitely prefers Chinese food.
 
When we go to KFC or McD both girls like nuggets and fries.
 
The girls continue to get a long well. :-)

  1. Your daughters are beautiful girls and they look so happy and like they have been sisters always. I loved Guangzhou - wished we could have spent more time there when we were in China last year.
