day one-three

Well me and tevin made it to Beijing Just fine. All the flights takeoffs and landings were great.It did not seem to take as long as I thought it would . We arrived in Beijing at 9:30 pm China time(8;30amfri) I was never so happy to see Christina holding up a sign with my name on it.we woke in the morning and there was a driver from New day foster home waiting to take us to drop off the toys and gifts from the Church in TN . we had a great day and enjoyed helping decorate for the holidays had lunch and spent quite a bit of time with Olivia a little 3 yo cutie who had heart surgery 2 weeks before but is doing wonderfully. The next day we went to the Great wall and the Cloissane and Jade factorys. We also went to a Chinese Restaurant for dinner and then to the acrobats show.The next day we went to Tiamennen Square and the forbidden city HUGE, then on the rickshaw tour of the old parts of Beijing where people still live as they did 100 years ago.The whole time me and T keep looking at each and saying "i cant believe we are in China".It is so surreal seeing all the places that i have seen in so many blogs. Some great bonuses.. while at new day we were able to meet daniels family as they were preparing to bring him home.What a great feeling and a terrific family. the next big bonus was meeting Hedda and Sara who were visiting the care centers. I wish they had been able to stay and meet Zoe.....
