Guangzhou - Aug. 4

Today was our consulate appt. day - we didn't have to do anything for it, just our guide - he had to turn in some paperwork etc.  We now will go to the consulate tomorrow afternoon to do some swearing in stuff in order to get her visa - then we are coming home!!! woohoo!!! we are soo anxious to get home - we are so tired of being here... ready for some normalcy - our little Maymay is definately a little spoiled here -but that will be a rude awakening to her when we get home!  She can definately throw some good 2 yr. old tantrums! and we've seen some more "sassiness" out of her today (more so when we are with our guide???)- we are trying to nip that in the bud as quick as possible:) 
 
Can't wait to get some good huggins from my kiddos at home!!  I miss them terribly:)
 
We didn't do too much today - just trying to pass the time away... after bkfst - we went swimming - it was a good thing we went when we did b/c it was kind of rainy and dreary later today... she's really liking the kiddie pool:) then we took a nap, played in the playroom and met our guide DAvid for dinner.  Instead of going on the traditional river boat dinner cruise (which we did last time and did not enjoy it) he took us down the street for a very good chinese dinner - it was delicious!!  It was nice and cool after dinner so we took a nice walk - Maylynn really enjoyed watching some people playing badminton in the park - it is very popular here... Now we are back at the hotel for our night time routine.
 
Ps. Sheryl - we were able to find Mtn. Dew in the bottle - i hope that's okay - we don't have access to anyother stores to find a can... see you soon!
