Peek - a -Boo! (one of Kate's favorite games)I'm sorry it has been awhile since I have posted, but on Tuesday (the 21st) I realized that I had a massive sinus infection. I have pretty much been in the bed during every free moment since then. And free moments have been few and far between, so posting here has not been a priority.
Tuesday was the day that our guide took all of our paperwork to the US Consulate. We stayed in the room for a while to make sure there weren't any problems with the paperwork, and then Mom and Tim took the kids to the playground for a bit. I joined them later for some lunch at Lucy's and shopping.
Today was the day we dressed our darlings up in traditional Chinese clothing for a photo op. They used to put all of the babies on the red couches together, but evidently this usually led to screaming babies, so now they just take a photo of the whole travel group in front of the water fall. We got some good candids of Kate in her clothes, but my other two children were less than cooperative.
Afterwards, we went to a pearl market and cheap DVD store. The pearl market was actualy more than a pearl market. Picture a mall about 6 stories tall, open in the center, ringed with store after store after store selling every kind of gem, pearl, or any other kind of jewelry you could imagine. I saw more jewelry than I have ever seen in my entire life.Alison stopped and got us all pizza for dinner, but at that point my head was pounding so hard that I went straight to bed (after starting a round of anti-biotics, of course). I was hoping to enjoy Guangzhou more than this cold turned infection allowed! Yuck!
