Li River Cruise in Guilin







Yesterday we took a cruise on the Li River. This landscape on this river is one of the most beautiful in all of China. Chandler enjoyed the trip too and enjoyed visiting with all of the other tourists on the boat. She is not shy at all and loves to entertain a crowd.

After the cruise we had an hour to shop in the village. Now that was an experience! The locals just flock to the tourists with souvenirs and will barter relentlessly. Our group split up during this time so we could shop at our leisure. It was a hoot to catch up with Nana after the hour. She was loaded with bags on both arms. We all know she can barter like no one else so likely she landed some very good deals.

When we returned to the hotel and after dinner, we learned that Channie LOVES music. We turned on the Chinese Music TV and she went crazy dancing to the beat. Nana and I laughed so hard we couldn't stop. I'm so glad I bought some Chinese music CD's at the Wal-Mart the other day. I think she'll definitely enjoy them.
