We had visitors from the United States. Yahooo...

Tom and Karen and Ben and Karen did a one month China tour. They covered a lot of ground from Bejing to Guilin and finally at the end of the trip spent 5 days with us in Shekou/Shenzhen. We were able to have a great visit with them and show them a little of what our part of the world is like. After doing the mandatory Red Lantern meal and then foot massage the first evening we let them explore while we went back to work. We sent them out for two days via taxi to enjoy some of our fun spots like Splendid China and the Artist Village. They kept coming back early and ending up at the massage place for some reason. We had Friday off due to our conference schedule. So on Friday we went to Hong Kong and on Saturday we took a day trip to Macau. We ate a lot of great meals and had a lot of laughs. They left by bus to Guangzhou to catch their early Monday morning plane back to Seattle. These are a few pics of our time together.
