Hello All!!
Today we boarded the bus around 9 a.m. and went to a botanical garden. It was in the middle of the city but you felt like you were in the countryside. It was very relaxing and peaceful to be surrounded by the beautiful gardens. We then went to the Chen academic center that is now a museum. The Chen family name is common like the Smith name at home and they started a school for only Chen's. We then had another group dinner at another local Cantonese restaurant and had a variety of eight different dishes. Tomorrow our guide is finalizing our Visa paperwork at the Embassy and we will have a nice relaxing day with no plans. Gracie had her first experience with good old American McDonald's french fries and she loved them!!!....And as usual before we went back to the room, we made a stop at our favorite store and spent some money with Sarah, Jack, Lilly and Ada. Of course on things that we don't even need.
