One of our last trips out with Roy was to the Nanshe Ancient Village, located in Dongguan which is about 1 hour from here. We managed to get just a little lost on the way with Rose's normal argument with the SatNav, but we got there eventually. The village is mostly unoccupied but with the buildings mostly preserved, the only folk around seemed to be old ones which is quite normal for most of the ancient villages we have been to so far.
Roy unfortunately got a bit sick while we were there vomiting quite a bit, his stomach had a bit of a disagreement with something he and in combination with a painkiller he was taking and after being sick a few times when we got back to Shenzhen we took him to the hospital to check him out and they put him on a couple of drips and after that he was fine again ready for his trip back to Hong Kong and home again.
We also had a couple of short trips to the local theme park, 'Splendid China' which is China in miniature and also we went to a water show at Shenzhen bay and also to the local zoo to see a panda, (we were told they had some) but it turned out they didn't have any after all, only the small fox like red pandas.
All in all he enjoyed the trips despite the sickness, we tried not to wear the old boy out so we didn't go out every day, having a few days rest between trips, which seemed to have worked out OK.
