Guangzhou -day 3

Most of us in the hotel lobby getting ready to leave on our excursion for the afternoon...


Jade Market - one of the hundreds of shops!
Aleigha must have looked exceptionally cute today because we had many Chinese people point at her and say how pretty she was! :)

500 Buddha's Temple:

An aisle in a grocery store....


Downtown Guangzhou where the Pearl and Jade markets were.... This is Dave, Eva and Sherry with Emma and Lily..,

This is Mary and her two boys- Cole and Chase...

This is at the Vegetable/fruit/Pet market... it was soooo sad to see all of these little animals in cages for sale. They really were being sold as pets and not food! That was our 1st question!






We ate an an Italian restaurant tonight and it was wonderful!

Only 1 full day left and we are on our way home!! Tomorrow we go to the embassy in the afternoon for an adoption ceremony. No cameras allowed in the building though. But I'm sure we'll take plenty before and after the ceremony!

Aleigha looks so spoiled!! I love it!! She looks so unsure in the very first photos and now she looks so secure and happy. It is amazing what can happen in just a few days.
