OK, so after much of a long anticipated wait, today
finaly came along at turtle-speed. The only long part
was waiting for the time where we could take the bus
to the airport, and then waiting to board the plane.
Everything else went SO quickly! The plane did NOT
seem like 2 1/2 hours, and the ride to the hotel did
NOT seem like an hour. By the time we got to the
hotel, time breezed by, and in no time, we were at the
Civil Affairs office. Witihin an instant, it seemed
we were holding our little YangYang in our arms!
Right now it is like 7:15 pm or so in Nanchang, and
she is asleep. At least I think. Occasionaly, she'll
have a cough, but she's a tired little princess. As
soon as we got her, she was like the perfect
angel-child. She didn't even cry! She has adapted
so, so well. We brought lots of toys, and she was
totally okay with me surrounding her by them, and she
has already laughed, "talked", and made sounds. She's
been getting along VERY well with everyone, and we've
got a lot of her on video and taken tons of pictures.
Tomorrow, we're going to finalize it, and then the
next day we're going to...Chinese-Wal-Mart! The Great
Wall? That was challenging! There's five towers to
make it to "the top," aka, every "stopping point where
you can say you've reached the top." I only went three, but I got
my "I climbed the wall!" card, and that's really all I
care about. Tian 'A Men (is that how you spell it?)
Square was OK, and the Forbidden City was pretty neat.
But, let me tell you, my feet HURT! It was so much
walking, I really don't see how our guide does it that
often. Our guide is Veronica, and we've heard great
things about her, so we were thrilled ot have her.
And she is AMAZING. She is one of the nicest people
you will ever meet. At first when I came to China, it
was like it was a dream, and I felt like at any time
I'd wake up in m bed at home. But when I saw Kenzie
and held her...it was just so real. By now, she's
definitely asleep, and I'm ready to eat my pizza for
dinner. So, to all those at home, I send my love,
blah, blah, blah, and stuff, and I'll see you all
soon! Later!
