First message from China! - posted by Mom xo

Ni Hao!! We made it!
We are safe and sound in our hotel's business center. The Beijing Airport was really big! No air conditioning just big vents in the roof. The people have all been very nice. There was 4 couples on our flight. 2 of them have children with them. One couple adopted their little girl 5 years ago. They are all at the hotel.
Our flight was LONG, but good. We ate really well. Kyle and I both got some sleep and are all caught up on the latest movies. We have to meet our group at 5:15 AM in the lobby, our flight for Guangzhou leaves at 9, I think! We have all our documents and are ready to go and get our girl. We are really tired, but super excited.
Beijing traffic is like something out of a movie. Its so busy and people cut each other off and honk after to say Thanks! Random!It is already dark out and it's really humid. There is a light rain but the temp. is still 35! HOT and Humid! We got the missing travel documents and have done some bag re-organizing and that's about it. We will leave in the morning. Hope we can write more. If not... we will take lots of pictures. We are back at the presidential plaza on Friday. If I can't email from the next hotel, I will get you guys all caught up on Friday! Hope you can wait that long.
Other then a little bitchy, we are very excited! We can't believe it's tomorrow! OMG!
Hope things are well at home. We are already missing the comforts of home.
Give our love to everyone. Please take care of our boys. Hope the fireworks aren't to loud!
Lots of love from half way around the world! We love you very much! Talk to you soon!
One more sleep... well kinda a half sleep!
Love you, have a wonderful night... or morning... or whatever!xo
