Hot Springs #2

Here is Patrick with Amariah doing the "Surprise" look, sitting in front of one 

our favourite pools. We actually spent the 

most time here since this was Amariah's favourite. He loved to take our plastic bracelets, with our locker keys on them, throw them into the water and laugh as 

mommy or daddy chased after it. We would then throw the k

ey bracelet back to him and would play the game over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. 

This is an example of what the enterance of most of the pools looked like. Isn't it gorgeous?

Here is Amariah. He was

 actually dancing, but I was failing to catch him with the camera while he was in full "swing."

In case you ever wanted to know what a woman's locker sign looked like in Chinese. Now speaking of the women's locker, I have a little story. I had just bought a bathing suit at a local store in this cute little town. And just like any girl, I was a little excited to try out the new suit. In the locker room, I pulled out the suit from the bag, I was just about the slip my foot into the bottom when I noticed this huge cockroach on the suit. I immediately threw the suit to the ground, completely disgusted, grabbed my shoe and started wacking at the roach with all my might. Even after I knew it was dead, I kept wacking just to be sure. Now the roach and his guts were smeared on the floor. My first thought was, "I want to return the suit." But this is China, you can't return anything. Everysale is a final sale. So, I bravely checked the rest of the suit for any more unwanted guests. After concluding that there were no more, I ventured to put the suit on.  After that I concentrated on completely enjoying myself with my family. 

This was the Enterance to the Hotsprings. I took this pic as we were heading out, back to Guangzhou after an amazing day of relaxation and quality family time.

Patrick and Amariah enjoying the last little bit of Cong Hua before we get on the bus to go home. 

While we wait for the bus, a moto taxi driver is taking a rest across the street. 

This taxi driver across the street often motioned toward us hoping for some busines. "Sorry Dude, not today."
