Guangzhou - Hot and Steamy

Well, we're in day 2 in Guangzhou and boy, is it STEAMY! We're very glad that this is a November trip - just can't imagine how hot it truly gets in the summer...

Medical's and visa pictures were done on our first day here and most of the paperwork is finished. We'll going later today to take "the oath" where we promise to take care of her etc.Shopping is underway, plenty of exploring to be done still and just some general relaxing until we fly out tomorrow to Hong Kong. It appears that we'll be arriving relatively early in HK and will be able to take the express train into the city - we hear it's just amazing and we're looking forward to it.

On another side of this trip, we just found out today that another group is under quarantine because of chicken pox that put one child in the hospital. We're under strict orders to keep to ourselves and to keep the anti-bacterial hand cleaner with us at all times. Unfortunately for them, they have to remain for another 10 days....lucky us.

Aanika is making great strides. She's finally decided to start crawling for us and is just an hysterically funny kid. She has such a ready smile and is so mild natured, we just can't believe how blessed we are!
