Thanks to Angela Upton who took us to the airport at 4am (what an excellent heart). Thanks also to all those who have been praying for us and assisting us over the past many months. You are all warriors and we are forever grateful to you.
We had a wonderful flight to China today. It took 13 hours, routed us over the north pole (see the polar bear), and was daylight all the way. This was the longest flight Laurie had been on and reminded Randy of some of his earlier jaunts in his naval career. It was exciting to get an aerial view of many of the places we would love to explore.
We were the only members of our adoption group on the plane. We met many wonderful people and were welcomed warmly by the Chinese staff at the airport and hotel. Our AWAA adoption guides in Beijing are Maggie and Rosa. They are both awesome and are taking great care of us. We had an authentic Chinese dinner and are headed to bed. Tomorrow is a full day of touring Beijing and the Great Wall. We do another tour Sunday morning and then fly to Joshua's providence in the afternoon.
Thanks again for your prayers & support!
