Hello there Gentle Readers, as I said in my post a few days ago, Robert, Lena and I are on holiday. So we decided today to spend a couple of days in Guangzhou and we booked into the very luxurious 5 star Royal Mediterranean hotel in the city. It was an incredibly good deal and we got a deluxe room for ¥1200 (€153 or £137).

We headed off to Canton Tower to go up for the view but the queue was just mental and we decided not to bother.
 |
| Just one of at least 4 different queues we saw at Canton Tower |
We took the tour bus (an amazing ¥30 each for 24 hours, Robert is free) and got onto the red line for a different view of the city. We went to Baiyun and we will go back tomorrow to see the gardens.
Lena saw this and took a photo.

This has bothered me since I arrived in China. Men everywhere exposing their bellies. I can understand going shirtless altogether but this.....is weird.
We stayed on the bus and once again
people tried to take Robert's photo without asking so I took theirs. We dont mind when people want to take a photo...blonde boys are very rare in China....but please ask permission first.
 |
| Snapped! |
We went to Beijing Lu which is a famous street in Guangzhou and its a very popular place to meet friends and people watch.
