More Pictures


Tuesday morning we had to stay in our hotel in case they were any questions with our paperwork.   All was well so we went under the street (that is how you cross the street here) to Liu Hua Lake Park.   Fortunately, the weather has been a little milder here so we enjoyed several hours wondering around the lake looking at the tropical vegetation.   When we entered the park the person who took the money would not wake up for Dave to pay.   I think they all must take naps from 12:00 to 1:00 because everywhere we turned workers lay on the concrete or on benches sleeping.   Zoe slept through most of the walk.  
The park has a large area full of ping pong tables and outdoor exercise equipment.   A great idea to have an outdoor workout area.   It misted lightly but we enjoyed the cool sprinkle.   We returned to our hotel and we four girls left Dave in the hotel, waited the long wait for a taxi and went to Shamian Island for a girl’s shopping trip.   We spent three hours pushing Sasha and Zoe through the bumpy streets into the stores and made quite a few great purchases.   Tonight we dined on McDonald’s – it actually tasted good – they serve cups of corn here and it was delicious!   A stroll around the Dong Feng Hotel courtyard next door ended our day!
