We Made It!

Hey, it's almost 9am in Beijing and we are about to head out to do the grand tour of the city and see the Great Wall.  Will post pictures tonight. There are 5 families in our travel group and 4 of them are going with us to Nanchang tomorrow.  We were reunited with our guide Alison last night at the airport.  So good to see her.  She says she wouldn't have recognized him if we weren't with him - she remembers him as a little round faced boy.  Diane, Alison remembered you fondly and asked about you when we saw her. The big thing is that we made it here safe and sound, and the trip, although grueling, wasn't as bad as last time around.  Let's hope that keeps up.  Oh well, we're off.  More to come.

So great that you will have those families to go with you to your province. We were all alone in our province--and it did get lonely!
