Picture index:
1 - Imagine seeing this truck rolling down the highway. Motorcyclists and pedestrians alike meandered past. The driver and passenger in the truck looked very concerned as the truck was obviuosly leaning quite a bit!
2 - Courtyard of the temple. The temple was made of several rooms surrounding multiple courtyard and garden areas. It was very serene and quite beautiful!
3 - Now, McDonalds has tried some innovative things to draw people in but.............. Seriously, this was taken along the walking mall. As I took the picture a group of Chinese teenage boys strolled by me laughing and looked back at me and told me they were simply delicious! I took they're word for it.
4 - Some boys working with their parents in a tire shop. We can't get over the constant hustle and bustle on the streets and shops. I don't know when they ever work. They say New York is the city that never sleeps - Let me tell you New York has nothing on Nanchang!
5 - My two women shopping. Tian loved the stroller and was quite the hit with Everyone.
Today was really a fun day:0) we did a lot of walking and spoke to many people. Our Chinese classes really worked. We have been able to get around the language barrier quite well. Its some of the cultural differences that make things interesting!

Dear Tom,Tara,and Tian,
This really has been the most incredible journey, not only for you, but everyone who has had the privilige to share it with you! I honestly feel as though we have already met, and got to know Tian.Of course along with that we have this wonderful personal insight into China and Chinese life. Who invented this "Blogging" stuff?? WOW!!
You don't sound exhausted yet, I gather the first time we see Tian "up close and personal" Grampy needs to be sneezing violently and holding a sucker!!!!
We love you, take good care of yourselves,keep on giving us these fantastic reports, and enjoying your stay.
Love,
Tessa
Hi Tom & Tara! Sounds like you're having a great trip. Thanks again for sharing your blog site with us. We have really been enjoying it - it brings back wonderful memories of our trip. Tian is an absolute doll. Have fun in Guangzhou - the White Swan is fabulous as is the shopping!
