WE ARE IN BEIJING!!!!

Kelly and I right before boarding for Beijing
First off I found KELLY in the Vancouver airport. So we are not alone anymore!!! Funny thing is Kelly's mom asked us if we planned on dressing the same since we are both wearing a purple/blue yoga suit....too funny....wasnt planned at all!!!!

As for the flight.....Tracey......ummmm.........there is day light the whole trip!!!! There is individual tv's for each seat which is perfect so you wont need movies for your laptop. Lots of kids shows. But the trip is long, kids get bored. You do get served lots of food, which wasnt too bad. I did find the trip went by OK......didnt feel like a 11.5 hour flight, but I didnt sleep a wink. So we are all running on ZERO sleep!!!!My dad eating with chopsticks......chicken & rice!!!

When we arrived at the Beijing airport......WOW!!!! Its big, hot, busy, and crazy!!! People everywhere, they will run you over, cut you off and you can get lost real easy from your group. We spotted the "flag" real easy!! Tracey, remember your airport instructions!!!! YUP....this city has 16 million people so the smog is BAD and its HOT!!!!

On the ride to our hotel

When Jack tried to check us into the hotel, there was no room for me!!! So after a few minutes they gave me a funky cute/cool room. We are all scattered all over the floors.....so we are not close to eachother.

Right now its 5:40 pm China time and we are going out for supper with Yulin at 7pm so I have to get ready!!! I will post more pictures after we get back from supper!!!
