Settled and Ready

We are checked into the Jin Feng Hotel here in Nanchang. We have 2 seperate rooms, but they are next to each other at the end of a hallway that is closed off to everyone but us. Not ideal, but it will work. Our guide is Vivian and she seems to know her stuff so far. We ventured out to the local little grocery store for "dinner". Came back with some Coke and 3 bowls of ramen type noodles. We managed to get one that was edible and we all split it. Pretty good to feed us all on $1.50 for dinner-LOL. Anyhow, we are completed wiped out, so we are heading to bed as soon as we talk to mom and the boys in a few minutes before they head out to soccer.

Here are some pics as promised. We lucked out and were able to get the bulk head seating for our 15 hour first flight. That was truly a life saver for the girls being able to sleep in the floors and all the extra leg room was awesome! It wasn't nearly as painful as I recall the last trip over, but I am sure I have mommy brain too ;)

Oh yeah, guess who we get to meet tomorrow?!?!?!? Tomorrow at 3:30pm is going to be forever life changing!!

We thought about you all on and off all day! Glad you are there. It's a nice morning in GA and hopefully the boys will get their soccer games in before the rain comes this afternoon! Enjoy and we'll look forward to tomorrow.

Sounds like you're in the same rooms we were in! The kids loved the hallway for a little extra running space. So excited you are there. Can't wait to see the pics from Sunday and hear all about it. We're praying!
