On this last map look at the yellow cities and you will see Faith's city, Zhanjiang City. The other yellow city, Guangzhou is where we will be staying in China for 2 weeks.

THose numbers are odd -- why the shut down in 04? And why such a dramatic decrease since then? Curious?
You are so fortunate to be able to stay in Guanzhou the entire time! I'll pray for a quick LOA and TA!
I agree--the numbers are interesting.
How exciting! You're going to be there before you know it!
Praying you're on your way soon!!!
