We're Here!

Today is Thursday, no it is Friday...No Today is Saturday. Actually by our internal clock it is Saturday morning at 7:15am, but it is Saturday night at 9:15pm. We slept pretty good last night considering we are in a different place, different pillows, and definetly different smells. We have always heard that the beds are hard in China, well they are!!!(LOL) We got up around 10:30ish. We got up and got everything ready for the next 2 weeks. We got gifts together, got suitcases straightened and separated. Then we went down stairs to walk in the garden that is attached to the hotel when we saw Brett Crawford with their new little one, Lily. First though the garden is beautiful!!! It has 2 huge waterfalls, lots and lots of fish in the water areas, a small bridge and a couple of areas to sit and rest. Next we of course asked Brett questions and wanted to know how things are going---he said great and that Lily was adjusting to them. We also ventured out a little to Pizza Hut (Rebecca said it would be ok) for supper where we had a eyeopener--one of the Pizza's there had shrimp and cheese stuffed in the crust. Well, actually it was in little open pockets inside the crust. So that is different than back home. We then to the 7/11 for water. A couple of the pictures are from our hotel window looking out.

Tomorrow afternoon is our first meeting with Rebecca at 5:00 to look over paperwork!!!
