Almost there and Arrival

We are almost to China. The flight was long but it wasn't too bad . Our seats were bulkhead so we had more room.

Eager to arrive and get settled in our room. First order of business may be a shower.

Tomorrow we go to the Great Wall, Sunday the Summer Place, and then we fly to Henan. Three more sleeps until we meet the boys.

Next part written after we arrived at hotel.

We were greeted at the airport by Olivia. She did not speak English very well but she was very kind. It was fun trying to talk with her. She absolutely loved Zachary's name. She kept trying to say it. The drive was about 40 minutes to our hotel.

We checked into our hotel. Nice hotel with some stores in walking distance. We walked down to McDonalds for dinner. First dinner in China and we have a Big Mac.

Only one issue my computer died. Dallas has big plans for us to find the Apple store today. We are hoping to figure it out after we get back from the Great Wall. Hoping our guide will assist us.

Also have to arrange for New Hope/Show Hope to pick up bags from us. We had them send us two suitcases of supplies to carry to China. They didn't show up at airport so we now need to arrange for them to be picked up.

After a few hours sleep we are now ready for our day. Didn't go to bed until 10:00 pm but woke up 11:22. Stayed up about an hour, slept until about 4:20. Been up since. Tonight I may try taking something to sleep.

Next post ... Our first day in China.
