Our 2nd Anniversary (Yangshuo, Guangxi, China)

Since we were in Canada over our anniversary, Nica and I travelled to Yangshuo, Guangxi in southern China to enjoy the scenic mountains and rivers for which the area is famous. We had a great time relaxing and exploring the rivers, mountains, and caves with Wesley (while trying to keep cool).

We went on a walk (around 10K) through the countryside
