Beijing!

DISCLAIMER: I'm trying to up date this typing in English, but all the prompts and buttons are in Chinese! Hopefully this will work.

Good morning from Beijing!
We got in on time, and the coordinator and driver for CHI met us at the
airport. They took us to the Great Wall to meet our group, and we
spent about an hour there. The Great Wall is beautiful, and really steep!
It took almost 2 hours to get back to the hotel on our group bus. The
people in our group seem nice - we just got to talk to those sitting
near us. There are 6 families (I think) going to Guangzhou tomorrow.
The others have babies in other provinces, and they'll come to
Guangzhou later.
We were so tired and dirty from flying and doing the Great Wall that we just took showers and
ordered room service. The food was good!
This morning we're up really early to go to Tianeman
Square and the Forbidden City. Then we'll meet our group and go to
the airport to go to Guangzhou.
We woke up this morning and realized we get Vivian TOMORROW! It's like Christmas Eve, but way better! :)
Okay, we'll check in later when we get settled at the Westin.

Wow, I can't even imagine the incredible journey you two have undertaken. Everything sounds wonderful, even before you hold her for the first time. I love you both and am praying for strength, courage(which you are rich in), and guidance.
I printed a copy of the updated blog to mail to Pa. Granny and I are going to see him tomorrow.
We'll be thinking of all of the Krupeks and it will enhance our visit to talk about your new life as a new family.
I'm proud of you both and know you are right on target for "Parents of the Year"
