Hello everyone we have made safe to China, the flights were long and many. When we finally arrived to our hotel we both were very tired and felf dirty so we just showered and went to sleep. The airports here are huge and beautiful and we were stared at quite often. Michael is almost a foot taller than almost everone so he does stand out among a crowed. Our hotel is nice when where in the room and Michael was seeing if he could get the computer working and i was getting my stuff to get a shower the electricity went out in our room. So we clicked all the swithces to make sure and sorta laughed then i went in the hall to see if it was just our room and was trying to ask the cleaning lady but not many people speak english so its more of hand motions game. I finally under stood her, when we walked into the room the first time our guide put our key in a key holder by the entrance inside our room then left, well when Michael saw it a few minutes later he took it out to put in his wallet. If you remove the key you lose power to your room . When i walked back into the room to tell Michael he was already on the phone with someone from the front desk who didnt speak english so i hurried and told him just put the key back and we will have power. So he was trying to tell the lady never mind but it took a few minutes to just get off the phone with her because she was still trying to figure our what he wanted. He just kept saying sorry my fault never mind over and over untill she finally hung up. So far everything as gone smoothly but continue to pray for us we will meet Mia in a few days and it will be awsome to be able to hold our little girl. We meet our guide in the morning to climb the Great Wall and tour some other stuff , i will start taking lots of pictures.

To our boys we miss you guys and love ya'll, we will call soon.

it must feel good to hold the key power. Ha Ha! If feels like you've been gone for ever and you've just arrived. I miss talking to you everyday already. I can't wait to hold your little girl either. Our maw maw Rita dresses are ready, so will do some pictures when you get home.

Love,
