Almost done!

We are really looking forward to heading home.  12 days in a hotel with a 1 year old that you don't really know and doesn't really know you is not how we suggest starting things off. 

Last night we went on a cruise on the Pearl River.  The lights are amazing and some incredibly tall buildings.  The Canton Tower was stunning.  Probably not the best for our colds, but how often do we get to Canton Guangzhou! The pictures below aren't as good as the the ones in the link, but not bad for standing on a moving boat with a hand held camera and Vivian in the front pack.

Most of the lights were put in for the Asian Games






Today was mostly a free day.  We had the infamous "red couch" photo for those of you that know about such things.  We also had a nice group dinner at the Thai place that is on the island.  As far as health, Trinda is the worst off right now.  Both Vivian and I (Todd) are on the mend, but we still have a pretty bad hack.  It's even money if I will keep my voice or not.  Doctors all around on Monday once we are home.  Below are some pics from the red couch photo shoot.

The group.  The adults are 2 of the Holt staff.

I'm not gonna cry!  I'm not gonna cry!

Yes I am!
 
Some models just get tired after a photo shoot.


Tomorrow we will receive the US Visa and then Friday we are off to Hong Kong and then cross the ditch on Saturday.  We are so looking forward to getting home and settling in to a routine in our own space.  Thank you all for all of the thoughts are prayers.  We are almost home.
