Hello everyone! We made it! What a journey it has been so far. All of our flights were great. We did not sleep much at all, but we think that it may have actually helped us get used to the time difference here. It is pretty humid here. We arrived in Gunagzhou at 11pm China time (which was about 8am Washington time). We went right to bed after checking in and got up this morning, had a wonderful brunch, met our facilitator Richard, who is wonderful and we are now settling in at our hotel. We were greeted in our room with the soon to be crib for Sophie to sleep in. We are in utter awe at the miracle that is waiting just miles from us. We were told that we will get Sophia at 9am tomorrow morning. This is sure to be a sleepless night! In about an hour we are going to Walmart to get water, and some supplies for Sophia. Please pray for us and for Sophia, our facilitator did tell us that he thinks she is still in her foster home (which was a shock to us) so this means that tomorrow morning may be an emotional challenge for her. As Richard told us, "she will hate you and then she will love you". Richard did confirm that our baby is VERY busy and that we need to keep a close eye on her. Her foster family lives in the country and it is likely that she has been able to run around on her leisure. Below are some pictures of the airport, our hotel in Guangzhou and a few others. We miss you kids and we loved talking to you today!!! Give grandpa and grandma a big kiss from us and we will send pictures of Sophia as soon as we can!!!!
