Medical Exam and Shamian Island



Well we have some free time today so I will continue to post. You will probably wake up today to hear about a strong earthquake in China. We are all ok. We did not feel anything here in Guangzhou. Helena had her medical exam today and the whole thing is best described as chaos. Crying children everywhere. But it was still fun. Afterwards was shopping on Shamian Island which was quite nice. The bartering system is pretty fun but reminds me of buying a car. We are going to take a taxi back Tuesday evening to shop a little more. We have ordered from Danny's Bagels tonight : a large pepperoni pizza. I'll tell you how it is. We had a chinese dinner last night with a wonderful group of New Yorkers! What a wonderful family. It really is great to share this experience with so many people. We are anxious to get home but will also miss this place and the experience it has been. Thanks for reading along. God Bless.
