We are in China!!

Sorry this post is late. When I logged onto Blogger in China it all came up in Chinese. Through memory I have been trying to hit the right buttons to publish the post and just now figured out how to switch the language back to English. :))

After a very long and uneventful flight, we have arrived safe and sound in China!!

We have met several other families that are adopting, including many from my adoption agency, GWCA. Everyone is excited about finally making it to China!! Personally, it is so nice to finally meet so many of the people that I have been talking to online for so long.

Today one of the guides, Kelly, picked us and several other families up at the airport and settled us into the hotel. She gave us a quick walking tour so we could get use to our surroundings and find the local grocery store. She was really nice and made sure we were completely settled in and answered all of our questions. During our walk we saw a Thai restaurant, so of course (you know Dad), we ate there for dinner. It was very good! Tomorrow is the tour of the Beijing including a walk on the Great Wall of China!

(I'm having trouble problems posting pictures, but will try again later.)
