RE: My First Adventure with Gab

Beautiful pictures @ifarmgirl. Looks like you had a lovely time there. was this the one in Guangdong Province? My husband and I visited the Guanyin of Lianhuashan, a massive gold statute where we said prayers for our ancestors and family. It was truly a remarkable day. we had to travel there by little speedboat from Keifatchu up the Pearl Delta. When were you in China? Which other parts did you visit?

Thank you, Sam. Yes, that was part of Guanyin. We were not able to get close to the golden Goddess of Mercy because there were a lot of people when we visited and the incense burning was quite suffocating. We were there in 2015 and visited quite a few places. Cruising by the Pearl Delta river was really amazing too, especially at night :) I forgot the names of the places we have been, but mostly historical ones.

I always loved our journey along the Pearl Delta on the Hovercraft to HongKong. We did it once a month while we stayed in Guangzhou (4 month stay together and then Hubby contracted there for 7 years). China has some truly amazing religious and cultural sights and fabulous ecology.

Oh, must have been really cool and memorable for you both. The country has a lot of wonderful sights and we've barely seen even just 1% of it hehe
