We have arrived safely in Guangzhou. After 17 hours of flying so far we are tired, didn't sleep real well on the plane, but excited to be here. We were greeted by the China team and taken to the Baiyun Hotel. After a quick shower we were taken by bus to the famous Dim Sum lunch where we met the rest of the adoptive families. It was great to see Norman- the director and the China team members again. They are so wonderful. It's amazing to me how they remembered us. Since we are the only family headed North to Shenyang, we finished lunch and were taken back to the airport for another 4 hour flight. We had a close call with our luggage as we needed two cabs (very small) to get the three of us and 1 china team member to the airport. Our luggage was loaded into both cabs trunks. While we were waiting a couple of teenage kids got into the first one without us knowing and the cab started to leave. My quick action Michael took off after the cab hollering "stop". There were some very sharp words that ensued between our China team member and the taxi cab driver. We were thankful it was all in Chinese... He apparently thought that they were with us. Thank you Lord-that would have been a bummer.
