Just a few more days before Dani comes home

Yesterday the only plans we had was for a dinner cruise on the Pearl River in the evening. Marney did some paper work for our appointment at the US Consulate pretty much in the afternoon. We then went to Lucy's for a cold one waiting to meet the our friends from Vero at the play ground with their new daughter Annie.

It was then off to the dinner cruse. The cruise was fantastic. Guangzhou hosted the summer Asian Games last year so they made a bunch of improvements along the river. You'll notice in the video the large (500-600 meters tall I think) tower and stadium right next to the river. All of bridges had lighting installed along with some buildings. Very impressive at night.

Today we went to the zoo to see some pandas. Unfortunately they had the pandas inside while they were disinfecting the exhibit outside. Our guide sweet talked the workers into letting us sneak in the back door to see the panda. A nice special treat for the girls. We were able to see them from only a few feet away.
