Saturday, Medical Exam & Exploring Guangzhou

Sorry I have missed a few days.  Guangzhou is great but the internet is slow and our VPN makes it almost impossible to upload pictures.  Today (Saturday morning) Noah had his medical exam which included a TB test since he is over 2.  I'll spare you the details.  It was rough!  But afterwards we explored a little, had lunch at Subway and bought him a singing lamb toy/phone at the store.  









Then we upgraded our hotel room at the Victory because the suite didn't have a bath tub.  Noah LOVES baths so it was worth the extra $20 a night.  This was his second bath of the day...






Then he napped and we met 2 other American families and headed out to explore Guangzhou.  We bought gifts for Ella and Beckett and a set of chopsticks for each the kids at Jenny's Place.


And finished up with dinner at Lucy's.  Noah ate noodles (again).  Other things he eats: eggs, congee, bananas and candy.  It's a work in progress.

  1. Love the last bathtub picture. Sorry to hear you got sick. If you ate at Subway and got lettuce or veggies on your sandwich that could be the culprit. Friends of ours got sick from Subway there. Just a thought. I hope you recover quickly. You will be home soon!!!!

  2. Oh too cute!!!
    We met Jenny & Mark on Shamian and shopped there - such a friendly couple and the burgers at Lucy's were pretty tasty too - we only got to visit the island 2 short times while there but we loved it there!!!
    Enjoy the rest of your stay :)

  3. I love seeing pictures of you and Luke holding him. After seeing so many pictures of him in the orphanage without you, it's amazing to see you all together. God is so good!
