Our Travel Plans

We are leaving for China tomorrow morning :). It will be Friday night when we arrive in Beijing so we will probably get a bite to eat and try to get some sleep. We will go on group tours on Saturday and Sunday before getting on another plane Monday morning. We will arrive in Hangzhou on Monday and fill out more paperwork. Tuesday is the day we get to meet Niklas!!! Please pray for the three children in our group as we will be turning around on Wednesday and driving back to Wenzhou (2 of us) and Taizhou (1 family) so they will have three long days of traveling. It is our hope that we will get to see the orphanage since it seems like many families have been able to visit. We will stay overnight in Wenzhou in order to get Niklas' passport and then make the return trip to Hangzhou on June 12. We will spend the next few days touring and completing paperwork. Our group will fly to Guangzhou on June 16 and that is where we will stay until flying home. We take Niklas for his physical, have our Consulate Appointment, and receive his visa during this time. Our plane departs for Shanghai and then we travel home to Atlanta on June 21st. We are very excited to be going back to China but we are also looking forward to coming home and transitioning into a family of four.
