The greatest new experimentation of our Asia adventure is the ability to take the local bus. Another commuting option enabled by another WeChat Mini Program, so convenient here in China. Of course with WeChat Pay picking up snacks and meals is literally seconds away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is not a huge surprise where we spent the majority of our time doing. After a quick local breakfast (really on the cheap), we set out to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitourchina.com\/guangzhou\/attraction\/lychee-bay.html\">Lychee Bay<\/a> (\u8354\u679d\u6e7e). We toured the old town surrounding the park, and then walk around the park. We then had dim sum at \u6cee\u6eaa\u9152\u5bb6(\u8354\u679d\u6e7e\u5e97) opened since 1947. The dim sum here is about the same as in Toronto, BUT its rice pot was way better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At night, we checked out the night scene at \u5317\u4eac\u8def\u6b65\u884c\u8857. The place was lively and active and simply had street food there for dinner. We also did some light shopping in the malls surrounding place. When the shop starts to close, we stopped by at a soup place where Carol had a chicken soup in a coconut shell. The soup was too sweet for me, but she really liked it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course on our way to the subway stop, we spotted a dessert place called, \u660e\u8bb0\u751c\u54c1, that we cannot simply let it past, so we stopped there and had a &#8220;little&#8221; dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have come to the conclusion that Guangzhou is my version of heaven! Check out Carol&#8217;s video of the day below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video height=\"1920\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1080 \/ 1920;\" width=\"1080\" controls poster=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/11\/Asia.Trip_.2023.11.17.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/11\/Asia.Trip_.2023.11.17-1.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lots to eat in Guangzhou!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this day, November 17th, we spent a full day here at Guangzhou (\u5e7f\u5dde).
