China Day22 Guangzhou

Tipping down today but travelling to Guangzhou by train so not a real issue

Although anxious about taxi ride in the rain it was fine. You could tell he really wanted to overtake on blind corners but turned out to be quite restrained in the end

As we travelled south fields turned to padi, then miles of fish/prawn farms

First look of Guangzhou

First travel fail of the trip…. Put in correct destination in Didi, but taken to a hotel 2 miles away. Compensation was that their receptionist was very helpful, gave us fruit tea and ordered a new taxi

At our correct hotel, we’re told via translator app, we had an “elegance toothpaste room with no window” we declined the upgrade and found we did have a window. No spearmint aroma though

Waiting for Pearl River Cruise at dusk. Have walked down Beijing Road pedestrian area, tempting and sanitary looking stall food

Stopped off for some red bean pudding (with milk/icecream) at Hang Fug Cantonese Deserts
