In China:.. Girl driver alert, first 5 days

Arrived HK , Thursday 25th. through immigration and customs by 6:00am. Arrived at the Dongguan Hyatt; Song Shan Lake about 7:30am .. virtually no /very light traffic  all the way from HK airport.  A lot of folks still not returned from CYN ..  also very hot and humid …..
A special note: our long time friend Julia has a China Drivers license. While this is No Big Deal in most counties .. Here it is a big deal.  So she is ready for her next visit to the USA

Saturday morning, Paulo and I arrived at Mrs. Yang’s tea shop as some family and friends had just arrived.
Paulo keeps an eye on the newest tea drinker, 10 month old “Ting Ting”  …….    Too cuteDSC00577c:  DSC00578c 
Song Shan Lake: How about a solid Granite Table and Stool set for casual outside dining?  DSC00589c
I think its safe to say these appellations owe much to poetic license :DSC00590c
Further down the lake ,the last of the fishing fleet is moored in readiness:DSC00592c
