Second Saturday with Ariana

We love those giggles!
Here's a little look around beautiful Shamian Island.  This park is close to our motel and wasn't very crowded.  We got a lot of stares today, not because we aren't Asian, but because we have Ariana. It isn't considered rude to stare here and people will stop dead in their tracks and look you up and down.

This is the White Swan Hotel, our home away from home. 




People often enjoy games on the street.  Board games and badminten are favorites.





Yet another photo shoot.  The traditonal Chinese wedding dress is red although we understand most brides wear western style gowns now.

This is my favorite book.

Nightime view of the Swan.

There was a blimp out last night and it attracted quite a lot of attention, but we couldn't get a decent picture of it.

Morning nap with Daddy.
