Guangzhou

14 million people, temperature high 20's and high humidity, jet lagged and feeling a little wonky.
WHAT'S GOOD:  The Chen ancestral hall built in the 1880's with it's amazing decorated courtyards and verandas.  Cantonese lunch complete with dim sum. The shopping. The greenery and lovely big trees  everywhere. The hotel swimming pool. 1.5 ltr bottle of water for just 70¢.
WHAT'S NOT GOOD: The traffic even on a Saturday!
WHAT MADE ME LAUGH: Sponge Bob in Chinese.
Off to the circus tonight which is apparently a must see in Guangzhou. Will in report tomorrow.
