June 4, 2007 - Shopping in Guangzhou and Pearl River Cruise

One year ago today, on June 4th, 2007, we had a mostly free day. K had to stay in the hotel room for a few hours in the morning in the event that there were any questions while our guides were representing us at an appointment with the U.S. Consulate's office, so EJ and I decided to do some power shopping. We had fun walking around the island and discovered a wonderful collection of bronze statues that EJ had fun posing with:



Then, we went for a swim in the beautiful pool at the White Swan:


Sophie was hangin' in the room with dad:


That evening, we went on a Pearl River dinner cruise with most of our travelmates. Here's our guide Rose with some of the big sisters:


It was a beautiful evening, and Guangzhou was all lit up:



We finished off the evening with a little shopping and a visit to the Shamian Island Starbucks:
