We are in China!

I have decided that international travel is all about stamina . . . . how long can you sit in one place and how many movies can you watch at one time.  I just about hit my limit getting here.

We left Spokane on Thursday, February 28, 2013.  Approximately 24 hours, with stops in Seattle and Seoul, we landed in Beijing.  Luke, Catherine and Claire were troopers and so that made the trip pretty easy.  We got to our hotel and literally dropped into bed.

We got up about 5:30 a.m. the next morning, which was actually Saturday in China, and headed to the train station.  We travelled to Zaozhuang to visit Claire's "Chinese Family".  Zaozhuang is where Claire  lived while in China.  When we adopted her we promised we'd bring her back for a visit as soon as we could.  I'll post more about that trip as an update to Claire's blog:  www.theroadtoclaire.blogspot.com.

We fell into bed again anticipating all that we would see in Beijing over the next few days.  Also spending a lot of time thinking about Sean, wondering about how he is feeling, and anticipating that moment we will see him.  We can't wait!
