Well, we're here (Beijing). I still cannot believe this is
happening!!
We did not sleep Tuesday night and left our house Wednesday
morning at 4:00 am to go to the airport. It is now approximately
10:45 am Indiana time Thursday (11:45 PM Thursday in Beijing).
We arrived at our hotel about 45 minutes ago. It is a very nice
place. It has a huge bathroom with an awesome shower. The main
room has a big flat panel TV with TV stations that speak
English!! It is late here so not much is open, but there is a
"Power House" across the street (probably not associated with my
favorite Power House Restaurant back home).
We had a good trip. Almost 30 hours in airports and on
airplanes, and it got old real quick. We met some neat people in
Minneapolis, including another adoptive family (from another
adoption agency) adopting a 10 month old. We may see her and her
family again in Guangzhou at the hotel. We met some missionaries
going to the Philippines for three years and a nice older couple
just traveling places they have never been. They are touring
Asia via a cruise.
We have much more to share, but with no sleep for two days now
(except for come cat naps on the plane) is really getting to us.
But, we just wanted to let you know we were here!! Tomorrow
we'll be doing some touring so you'll want to stay tuned!!!
At the time of this writing, we only have 2 full days left
before we meet the girls! GOD IS GOOD! |
