Keith here....
It is early Monday, 8/16 and we'll be leaving for the Beijing airport in a few hours. Amy is sleeping a little bit. The bus picks us up at 5:30 a.m.. Our bags have already been picked up by the bell hop. I'm excited, nervous, anxious and tired. I can't believe today is the day Amy and I will be meeting little Lu Lou for the first time. This is what we have prayed for for a long time. We expect to arrive in Nanchang late this morning.
We had a busy Sunday... we attended an International English speaking church, did some shopping which Amy enjoyed, climbed the Great Wall, attended a Tea Ceremony at Dr. T's Tea House (of course there was some green tea there for Amy) and had a Chinese lunch and dinner. The day was beautiful, hot but with nice clear blue skies. We have enjoyed our time in Beijing!
I've had trouble loading pictures, so I'll try once more. This one is from our Saturday sight seeing at the Summer Palace.
I've got to run and get some sleep We're going to have a very exciting and busy day! ! ! ! !
Thank you all for your prayers!
I am waiting to exhale! Great that you got to see some of the sights. I will check again tonight to see where you are! Rita
