Anzhe's last day in Guangxi

It was sad to see Anzhe (Andrew) leave today; he's the first person from blighty to have experienced Pingguo full-on. And it struck me that he would have liked to be able to spend another couple of weeks here if Lis was here. The previous day or so I'd rung up a hotel in Shenzhen to book a room. 40 quid sounded a bit steep but we weren't sure what it was like near the airport.

Anzhe, Ailun and I went to Nanning and went to see Xixi at 2nd sister's house. A Wu said he would come down to take us to the airport but later on it appeared he was too busy or something. And and I found a little place that sold ice cream and asked if they had any beers. Indeed they had and we spent an enjoyable hour watching the Nanning folk walk by.

We got a lift to Nanning airport with Leilei and Ailun...I was really really tempted to accompany Anzhe to Shenzhen to "help" him but Tan saw through my Good Samaritan act as she knew it would be an expensive excuse for a last night's drink without her watchful eyes...
