Ted and I flew out early Wed. morning (Nov.28) from Nashville to Minneapolis, to Tokyo, and then Beijing, China. We meet up with 6 adoptive families for the flight from Minneapolis to Tokyo, which was very long, 12 hours. We felt as if we were packed like sardines. Our total travel was 18 hours, but with the time change it took us into the next day. We actually arrived in Beijing around 9:30 PM on Nov. 29th. FTIA (our agency) had a coordinator, Genie, waiting for us, where we loaded our luggage and then off to the hotel, Zhaolong Hotel . We are very tired, but excited that we are only 4 days from Gotcha Day (the day we get Leanne).

I get chills when I think about you...in CHINA! Holy Cow! You are really there! Just a few more days and Leanne will be in your arms. HOLY COW! I feel so lucky to be a small part of this amazing experience. So glad you know that you are safe. I have been trying to get my message to you for hours...I needed a lesson before you left! HA.
We love you-
