Arrival to Guangzhou

We made it without a lot of drama! Carter loves any mode of transportation especially anything big. Airplanes qualify for big so he was very excited. When we got to the airport he said goodbye to our guide without any trouble and headed straight to the windows to see all the planes. This worked for a while until this brilliantly smart child figured out what doors get you to the plane. When he couldn't go through the door to the plane the screams began. Luckily we were able to calm him down with some chips and coconut juice. Once we made it on the plane he began to get upset, but fortunately the pilot cooperated and got us moving. He loved it when the plane started going fast and giggled every time you could feel a rise in elevation. We managed to keep a seat belt on him for take off, but landing was somewhat of another story. We were fortunate to have flight attendants who did not say anything to us. The seat belt did get fastened for a short time just minutes before landing. No screaming fits on the plane, yay! He fell asleep on the way to the hotel and stayed asleep for a little while when we got to the room. We went for an early dinner at Lucy's where we could have cheeseburgers and fries. Carter has discovered ketchup and loves it, in fact he would stick his fork in the ketchup and only eat ketchup. The hotel has a fish pond and Carter had a blast checking that out. He saw I had my camera out and insisted I take a picture of the fish. He has taken his daily bath (he would take 4 a day if we let him) and trying to get me to stop typing on the computer. I have to admit he is pretty hard to resist so that is all for today.

Checked into our hotel.


And I'm excited because I can once again post pictures the normal way!
