Hui Gardens

We visited the Hui Gardens today. It was very beautiful. Each county of Anhui had its own place in the garden - either a building or a statue. We had a good time walking around and looking at all the interesting buildings. We even met a group of school kids from Tibet who were in Hefei on a field trip. Their English was very good and they loved practicing it on us! Everything was going really well until Emma saw a vendor that had lollipops for sale. We had just had popscicles so I said no when she asked for a lollipop. Guess that wasn't the answer she wanted!!! She can throw a first class tantrum!!! I think we have entered the "let's see how far we can push" phase! Things were much better after we got back to the hotel and had a nap.
This afternoon we took a walk down the street to the square with the fountain again. On the way, we noticed that there is a cosmetic & plastic surgery clinic just a couple doors down from the hotel. Maybe we will get some work done while we are here!!!
