China Day 14 - Guangzhou Medical Exam

We stayed close to the hotel room in Guangzhou this morning as Sophie has a little cold and it turned cold and windy outside (high of 58).  Here's Tim holding a blubbering Sophie - she didn't want anything but to be held and look out the window.  We think she's teething too.  Eventually we drugged her up and took her downstairs to breakfast where they have quite a spread!

 Here are some pics of the delicious buffet.  We took a picture of the fish heads for Doug Reber. He loves protein.

We also gave Sophie her first ice cream (that we know of).

First she tastes it...                           then Zowie is that cold!           
                                     

Our friends Doug and Vicki loaned is this wonderful baby backpack that we have carted everywhere with us, so we took this obligatory shot to say Thank You!  It is being put to good use!

Late in the day we were off to the Medical Examination office where babies are examined to ensure no infectious diseases are brought into the U.S.
