We finally made it! It was long and I'm pretty sure we had the most uncomfortable seats on the plane, but we are here safe and sound and very tired!


Jim and Susan (also adopting a baby from Inner Mongolia)

Dinner...don't we look beat?

Ike, our fabulous guide, and out waitress at dinner. The food was great, but we were almost too tired to notice.

We're finally in China!

Me and my mom at the beginning of the trip in SLC.

Yeah! Glad to see you made it safe and sound. Yep... those flights are brutal! But can't think of a better reason to endure them! : )

Nice to see you made it!! On your return flight you won't even realize how uncomfortable the seats are . . . you'll be way too distracted (in a good way! hehe).

Aw, welcome to China! Have a wonderful trip! A couple of small things I bought there that I loved:
- Tiny bottle of liquid dishsoap
- A plastic collander (round) to hold drying nippples,spoons, etc.
- Yogurts with straws (the babies suck them dry)
- Rubber gloves, I burned me hands a million times trying to sterilize bottles and stuff with the boiling water.
- Bottle of mouthwash. We'd take a little swig before showering and then you were conscious of keeping your mouth closed the whole time (and even if some water snuck it, it would be fine with the mouthwash in there).

Have a blast, girl!!! I'm counting on lots of blog posts and LOTS of pictures.

xoxo,
M3
