Guangzhou

Our trip on Friday to Guangzhou was, thankfully, uneventful. Liam slept all the way here on the plane:) Although people continually snuck to the bathroom to smoke,the plane never caught fire.... 

We stopped at the Taiyuan History Museum on the way to the airport and that was rather interesting. The Chinese culture seems to have started in Taiyuan or at least in Taiyuan.

Our room here is very nice and the food is great. There's a Starbucks around the corner and down the street is a burger joint!!!! We sat outside and ate burgers and drank beers with another adoptive family staying here. It was really nice to talk to some other English speaking folks:) It's really beautiful here. Unfortunately, they have the entire island torn up to renovate for the Asian Games this November.  We have to jump along muddy paths and try to avoid falling rocks... but it's still much nicer than the last city:)

Today we'll go to church here. We are both so looking forward to worshiping our Creator. We didn't realize how truly blessed we were in every way until this trip. The service will be in English and Chinese! I can't wait! 

Ok the computer died before I could hit send!! We didn't have a convertor (the electrical outlets are different here) so I had to wait. I have ore to say now but I don't have time! I'll post more later! Jen
