... that was the toast of the evening last night. After a full day of sight-seeing in Guangzhou, our friend Hai Ying took us to a dinner party of sorts, at a not-quite-open hotel, on a pond, under the moon. We couldn't figure out exactly what was going on, or why we were there, but we were part of a fancy-pants dinner party and were served numerous dishes both delicious (pumpkin soup!) and less-so (omelet with sticky rice, canned corn and grapes, topped with bbq sauce, anyone?).
At one point we were entertained by a mask dancer and traditional music. Then Tasche and I were asked to sing for the crowd-- "Something like from Titanic, you know?". Clearly, we did not sing Celine Dion for the party (nor did we sing anything, for that matter). I think we disappointed them.

It looks like you guys are having an amazing time in China! What beautiful towns and experiences.....I think that I'll have to pick your brain when you return and possibly plan my own China adventure!
Can't wait to catch up!
