So...Guangzhou...was preparing for the Asian Games 2010....slightly better organised than Delhi for the Commonwealth, they had pulled out all the stops and the place was obviously ready well in advance, no pot holes, building sites or stinking mosquito ridden cess pools. Well done....India...take note! For those of you that don't know this used to be called Canton...and obviously where the language and food Cantonese originate.
Anyway enough of that waffle.... here's a small selection of shots from the place.

| Bamboo mat sellers |

Outside the Opera House and Art Gallery seemed to be a popular place to have
pics taken before the wedding |

| Children on a trip to the art gallery (which was excellent btw and well worth a visit) |
 |
| A common sight all over, young and old alike playing a local version of hacky-sac |
