Six Banyan Temple and Chen Clan Academy

Today our guide went to the American Consulate to complete paperwork on our behalf, as tomorrow is our oath ceremony.  While she was busy, we went with another guide to tour the Six Banyan Temple and Chen Clan Academy.  Pouring rain and a tired baby made for a quick trip.  Nonetheless, it is always nice to leave the hotel and explore for awhile.  Tonight we are going with another adoptive family to a traditional Chinese restaurant on Shamian Island.  Think turtles in a bucket and fish in a tank, all on display for your dinner consumption.  Yum! Yum!
