Guangzhou Martyrs Park

 Big city life is fun, but our team craves outdoor time.  Finding the Guangzhou Martyrs Park was JUST the gift we needed this week.  Another gift?  Borrowed strollers from the Garden Hotel.  What, what?  Our backs are grateful. 
 China knows how to design a park, and the Chinese people know how to enjoy them. 
This is a beautiful park with a lake and beautiful bridges,
paddle boats and a well used exercise area. 
We were there on a Saturday, and the park was full of life. 
 We love that in any community area, you can find people singing and playing instruments, walking and actually having conversations.  Such a sweet way to live in community. 
Groups playing cards could be found all over the park, and every bench was filled with men playing mahjong.   (We must learn to play this game!)

We love so many things about China, 
and we have a thing for blossoming little Chinese girls.
