Another short post.....

and another full day of touring. We are exhausted. I think I figured out how this program works.......they get you here and tour you all day so you don't have time to get nervous or think too much about what it about getting your baby.

Today we left the hotel at 8:30 and returned at 7:00. Our flight to Avery's province leaves and 7am in the morning so we have to leave the hotel by 5am!! This means after we returned to the hotel we grabbed a quick dinner and spent the rest of the time packing and attempting to get in bed early.

Todays tour activities included: Tian'an Men Square, The Forbidden City, lunch at the Friendship Store, and the Great Wall. I have just posted a few pics and will try to update more tomorrow.

yep, that's me on the Great Wall.
All the way from Texas to China to pose on the Great Wall.

Thanks for checking in, sorry I'm to tired to do a long post.

2 more sleeps until Avery!!!
