Oh Sweet Victory

We left Guiyang today to travel to Guangzhou. After staring at the same 4 walls for 4 days it was time to get a move on. The Howard Johnson was unlike any other HoJo we've ever seen but even a 5 star hotel can get old. There were 60+ channels on the TV but only 4 in English. I have watched more sports in the last week than my whole life. The problem is the sports are necessarily current. The US open was on a continual loop with sporadic pool and ping pong matches mixed in. If I have to see Tiger Woods win one more time.........
Some times we would see a sporting even that we didn't recognize so it was fun to try to figure out the rules of the game. Zane and I watched one match of something that resembled two men on a platform slapping each other until one of them fell off. We think we could even participate in that sport.
Our departure time was at 6:00 p.m. and check out at HoJo was 2:00. So with 4 hours to burn we went ahead the airport. There wasn't many places to go with all our luggage. The time didn't go quite as slowly as anticipated. Ty made good use of his time.

We said goodbye to our guide, Jane and boarded the plane. Jane explained to Ty that he was going to ride on an airplane and fly like a big bird. Then when we spotted the plane and showed him his eyes got really huge. It was quite funny.

Saying goodbye to Guiyang.....

PLaying peek-a-boo over the seat at Zane and I....

Now we have made it safely to Guangzhou and are settled in the Victory Hotel. We are so glad to be here. The room is much bigger and the halls are much longer to play ball in. We brought a beach ball and the highlight of the day is running and kicking it up and down the halls. Hopefully tomorrow we can find some outside places to run and play. Lets hope we don't have any more trips to the hospital though.

I am feeling much better this evening. So is Zane. We are both almost back to normal.
