Sightseeing in Guangzhou

The kids slept in the living room, Jessie on the couch and JD on the chair and ottoman.  Both said they slept well.  We got up around 7am and went down to breakfast.  Breakfast had a good mix of Asian and Western foods.  The coffee was just okay, maybe it will be better tomorrow.  After breakfast we headed to the Garden Hotel to meet up with our WACAP guide Elsie and another family.  We visited the oldest Buddhist  Temple in Guangzhou.  It was interesting enough.  My daughter asked our guide why do these people worship a statue.  I'm eternally grateful that Jessie lived with Donna awhile and attended church and has read her bible through twice!!!

It started raining so we went inside for the rest of the afternoon.  Jessie has been making a kinda whimpering puppy sound.  I try to talk to her and she just smiles.  I'm sure she has to be overwhelmed some, but she sure hasn't shown much yet.  Maybe she is not feeling all that great because of her shots.  Please continue to pray for the rest of our journey and especially Jessie as she make this big change.

  1. OMGoodness! My heart is skipping beats. I just now got a moment to look at your blog since the day you guys left and I'm over-joyed for all of you. She is absolutely beautiful and it's so heart-warming to see your family extended one more time. How Blessed you all are! Looking forward to meeting her.
