9AM
So it’s my second day in Guangzhou and I found out some things:
1). I’m such a boss at packing stuff in luggage, that I discovered that I had forgotten my camera charger back at home, and that I had lost my favorite sony ear phones.
I’ve compensated by using my Sony handycam to do double duty as impromptu camera and video recorder.
2). Being outside is like walking through a sauna.
There are also a bunch of kitties here! Today, I saw a box of kittens of which inside five kitties were climbing over each other to get my attention! And then later when my brother and I were climbing up the Sun Yat Sen memorial tower and building/park, there was a tiny kitten with a collar that had looked so weak and pitiful and when I went to give it attention it went up to me and laid down on my shoe so for a while I didn’t move because kitten on shoe :(
And then there was a totally chill orange cat that let me pet it and meow and me and kind of made me feel better.
And I can now check off “petting a kitten” from my “Things to Do in Life” list.
