** Adoption countdown: 2 days until Pam, Terry and Matthew return home **
GUANGZHOU, China (Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2008, 8:10 p.m.) – Is it possible to become burned out on Chinese food while visiting China for the past two weeks?
The food here is incredible, no doubt about that. But I think it’s time for something different, maybe a little bit of Mexican food from El Potrillo – like a quesadilla or shrimp fajitas.
Here, you don’t have much in the way of Mexican. And American food is iffy at best – like Lucy’s, the American-style restaurant down the block from the White Swan that’s so-so.
McDonald’s, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Poppa John’s and Starbucks are plentiful – but they aren’t exactly what I’d like to eat.
Anyway, tonight Pam, Matthew and I returned the same Chinese restaurant where we ate roasted pigeon a couple of nights ago. We had a pork dish tonight, along with fried noodles.
And, like the other night, it was good and dinner cost less than $20.
Dinner and obtaining Matthew’s immigrant visa dominated today’s activities. And I chronicled a lot of it in a photo gallery you will find at the bottom of this blog post.
Wednesday is our last day in Guangzhou, so we hope to make the best of it.
