If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading. ~Lao Tzu

Not much went on today, other than Juliette's temperament improving little by little. There was a lot less crying and fussiness today, and she finally went potty! We think her tummy feels much better now. We walked rather slowly today, because it was very hot and the humidity here is so high all the time! We went to a few shops and bought some souvenirs after getting to Starbucks a bit later this morning.

By lunch we were too hot to keep walking and went back to the hotel to cool off. We were happy to find that three other American families have checked into our hotel and have the same consulate date that we do. We met one of the families at Lucy's this evening for dinner and chatted for a while. Apparently, their baby is rather fussy too! It is ever so nice to meet people from home, when we are so far away! Juliette was in a much better mood at dinner, and even let mommy sit down for a while to eat! She went to bed rather early this evening, as she only had one nap and was rather tired from the day.

We are looking forward to sleeping in a little tomorrow since we once again have nothing scheduled.

Goodnight from Guangzhou!

Does anyone else sense the irony...?
