Today, we went to the Guangzhou Folk Art Museum. It was contained in the one of the oldest buildings in Guangzhou. When we went in, the entrance opened up into a courtyard containing many covered patio rooms with ancient pieces of art throughout. From there we went to a six-story mall called the Guangzhou Friendship Store. It was a government owned mall, where bargaining was not generally allowed. The top floor was all baby stuff! Due to high prices, we did not buy anything here. However we did go downstairs to the Grocery Store there and buy formula and water and diapers and coke and baby food, etc… This grocery store was a little more expensive than Carrefour, China’s version of Wal-Mart. It compared more with Kroger or HEB. Still pretty inexpensive by American standards though, I think.

Baby was a trooper. She shopped cheerfully until we all dropped! We came home and she slept for several hours. She was exhausted from her busy day of shopping and sightseeing, and I think we were a little bit too! She was bored at the Museum. So bored that she slept! Ha! Ha! We can tell she’s not an art buff, at least not at this age! Then again, Daddy is not much of one either! Like father like daughter!

Below are some pictures of our day at the museum. Blessings to all who read our journal!
