More Nina...

Sorry it took us so long to post more pictures, but we've had some minor technical issues the past few days that prevented us from posting. Things have been going very well here in Guangzhou. Friday was a free day for us, as some of the other families in our group made the 4-hour (each way) trip to the orphanage in Yangchun. Nina's not a big fan of the bus, so we decided to stay back at the hotel -- more time fro us to bond! On Saturday we visited the Guangzhou Zoological Garden (aka, the zoo!) which is the home of Guandong Province's only Panda Bear. After the zoo, we visited a Buddist Temple where we were belessed by a Buddist Monk. We then capped the day off with a nice SNAKE dinner! On Sunday, we took a dinner cruise down the Pearl River in Guanzhou. Some of the pictures below are from the cruise. Today we have some more paperwork, and Nina's official medical exam. She seems perfectly healthy to us, so we don't expect any problems.

So, without further delay, here are the pictures:
