First night in Guangzhou... a city of such size it's nearly impossible to describe.  Huge apartment buildings sprawl as far as the eye can see... over 19 million people live here.
At the Chen Family Temple.  Beautiful!!  (the temple, and Kavanna's smile, which she breaks into immediately AFTER a photo is taken, so you'll have to trust me that she's got a huge, mostly toothless grin)
Nina, Kavanna and Ariel at our GWCA Family birthday party at Lucy's
Some of our GWCA group... that's our new friends Jeff and Karen next to David, and their daughter Annabel in the stroller.  We all finally met Lynn (far left) and Rochelle and Erin, (second and third from the right) who we know from our online Yahoo group.  They get their babies today!!
With our terrific guide, Grace.
Ahhhh, here's the smile we see almost all day long.  Happy Kavanna!!!
