Saturday Evening



We went swimming at the hotel pool this evening (you have to wear a bathing cap). This was Leila's 1st time in a pool.
The other picture is from the park earlier today. It's some local girls that wanted their picture taken with Darrell.

The park was out in the 'country' part of Guangdong. Guangdong is the name of the province. A province is like a state. China has 5. Thing was - it just looked like a dirty part of the city. Here in this area, the farmers lease their land to factories, because they can make more money that way. That explains why the 'country' here looks the way it does.

On a positive note, there's very little crime here. People don't really bother to lock things up. A lot of people ride bikes, so there are bikes parked all over, but none of them have locks on them.
