We're Here!!!!!! con't
Hi All!
After a LONG flight (it was really not too bad, although there were only catnaps to be had - there was quite a lot of leg room, so that was not a problem...) we arrived at Beijing Airport. It was VERY busy, but uneventful - no problems with customs. We navigated our way through throngs of people all hurrying toward a destination, and boarded a bus to our hotel. We received our luggage in our room, and tried to get organized for the next day.
At 2:15, we met and went to a local supermarket to purchase some bottled water and other snacks, and went back to the hotel. Dad and I were pretty tired, having been up for many more hours than we were used to, so we took a quick cat nap.
Dinner was at a local restaurant, and it was delicious! Afterwards, it was pouring, so we took a local conveyance back to the hotel (see attached picture of Dad with the driver).
We went right to bed and had a good sleep.
Love and miss you all, especially you, daddy to be!

I know you just got there but I can hardly wait for you to come home so we can all smother Caitlin with hugs and kisses..! We are all so anxious especially Jay..! You are in our thoughts and prayers always so be safe, take lots of pictures and try to get some rest! It's so amazing your Dad was able to fill in on such short notice so tell him we all said "Hi" and thanks again..! Much Love,
