Kate and Nathan escorted us to Hong Kong

On our last day in China our friend Kate and her son Nathan came to Gaungzhou to spend a little time with us.  They also guided us through the train station and accompanied us all the way to the Hong Kong Airport where Kate's husband Doug and other son Evan joined us for dinner.  It was so nice to see them.  I know Bridget loved the opportunity to speak Cantonese--A bit of a break from the language struggles.  (We might still be in Hong Kong somewhere without Kate's guidance). Thanks again Kate.  We love you!

Auntie Kate and Bridget talk (In Cantonese) prior to our train ride to Hong Kong.

Fun to watch Nathan and Marlee play.  Nathan came to Guangzhou to visit Marlee when she was adopted two years ago.  They sure grow fast!

Auntie Kate bought Bridget some chinese speaking DVDs of a TV series that apparently is laugh out loud funny because Bridget did a lot of smiling and laughing watching it on the laptop.
These are lizard skins on a stick.  We went back to the market to take a picture of them before we left.  I was hoping they weren't some kind of dessert treat.  Apparently, they have medicinal purposes.
