We have landed in China and are in Beijing. The flight was not too bad, we slept for the first part of the trip. Will reached for his glasses to find them without a lens. He is blind as a bat and with the cabin lights off we were searching for his lens. Thanks goodness I found it and the screw was still in the frame. As you can imagine we had nothing to fix the glasses with and if you know Will he can fix anything so I was not too worried. With a toothpick he was able to get the glasses back together again. He is a true MacGyver. I did have a bit of duck tape with me. I read somewhere to bring some but I was not sure why. It was our fall back plan.
As we waited for our bags I struck up a conversation with another American couple. She asked me if we were adopting and so were they. Their daughter has just turned 2. I asked if she was on the SN list and they said yes and she asked me what our SN was and can you believe this, their daughter and Annalise have the same SN. Wow God really brings those people together that need to meet. They will be at the White Swan 2 days after we get Annalise so I look forward to running into them again.
I am so close to Annalise now 4 days to go!
This sign is for Will he is 6'2" and towers over everyone.

It's so weird to see that YOU ARE THERE! We're still home and don't head for the airport for another 6 hours. Glad to see you survived the flight in business economy- give me hope!! Enjoy Bejing, especially the great wall.

Have a wonderful time in Beijing! How neat that you met that couple : )
Yea, you're THERE !! I can't believe it. How cool that you ran into that couple that is adopting also. So glad you found Will's missing lens. What a relief. I'm glad the little doll made it safely too :)
It's so hard to grasp that you are just four days away from Annalise. I am thinking of you every moment of the day and so happy to hear you've arrived safely. Breathe, Breathe, Breathe...
Love you,
