I am experimenting with how to put more photos on the blog...apparently I am already out of space!  Ugh, I am new to blogging and I take too many pictures and would love to share them with all of you so here goes my first attempt.  Looks like I will write about the pics a bit and then also share a slideshow? 

We recently went to Yuexiu park in Guangzhou.  It is know for it's statue of the 5 Rams...Here is the history according to a local tourist page...

The Five-Ram Sculpture is one of the most famous structures in Guangzhou. It has become the emblem of the city. Legend has it that more than 2,000 years ago, the city was a barren land with people who despite hard work were suffering from famine. One day five immortals in five-color garments came riding on five rams, playing their legendary music. The rams held sheaves of rice in their mouths. The immortals left the sheaves of rice for the local people, gave blessings to the city and left. The rams turned into stone and the city became a rich and populous place. Guangzhou got the name of the City of Rams and the City of Ears.

We spent the day walking around the beautiful park, riding some electric motorboats, and having some good street food.
