Day Two

We're starting day two here. Our first day was spent mostly in the confines of the White Swan Hotel. We were so tuckered out from our flights, etc. We slept most of Friday away. We're going to meet our guide David today. I'll post more on our meeting with him later. We ate at a restaurant named Lucy's last night. Ron survived! Of course, he ate a burger and fries. I had the Cantonese Sweet and Sour Chicken. It was mighty tasty if you ask me. The stores near the White Swan are great! Those of you adopting little girls will go into a shopping frenzy. There's not as many boy items, but that's okay. We brought plenty of clothing with us. Well, I'm going to shower right now. I love our shower at the White Swan!!! Can I bring that home as souvenir??????

Fliss, Mike won't have a problem eating here. Stay at the White Swan and they have a wonderful American style breakfast buffet. We packed some Ziploc baggies to take a few extra things from the buffet back to our room for a lunch snack. If Ron can eat here, Mike can!!

Rosie, yes, Jensen is going to be speaking Cantonese.
