China Trip – Guangzhou, 28 November 1993

28 Nov Guangzhou – Half day tour in morning – Temple Of Six Banyan Trees & Pagoda & then Chen Family Academy with rice-sized carvings etc.

View of Guangzhou, I think from our hotel/hotel room

Temple of the Six Banyan Trees

…and Pagoda…

Chan Family Academy

Child prodigy

I honoured the guide on our (Sally’s) coach in Guangzhou, who had the unfortunate name of Dhung, with:

The Neil Kinnock Award For Repetitive Speech

No photos from the latter half of the day.

Dim sum lunch at Friendship Restaurant followed by free afternoon – we just rested – then banquet in evening – food good and fun – went to local bar afterwards and then home.

I honoured one of the waitresses at the Friendship Restaurant with:

The Mr Bean Award For Dexterity

I suspect it was at the end of tour banquet that my “awards” got their airing. Here is a link to a facsimile of all four pages I wrote out:

All the photos we took on that day – by which I mean all 16 photos – can be seen in raw form in the Flickr album below:
