We got word yesterday that our flight was changed to this morning, rather than this evening. After we got to the airport this morning we found out that information was not correct. Since we were already checked out of our hotel, our guide took us to a park for a while, then to lunch (like yesterday, good food, but some of it hurt), then window shopping at a store, then back to the airport in the afternoon. Katie was fairly impatient waiting in the terminal. I am farly convinced she has never seen a plane up close until today. We got her a little Matchbox type plane days ago and she never seemed to know what it was about (though we tried to show her). Today I showed her a plane taking off for real and then demonstrated with the toy plane and she got the picture. Once she got on the plane she objected to the seat belt, of course, and to not being able to have the tray table down every time she wanted to, BUT she liked being served food and she really liked peeking out the window over Karen (belted-in of course). She was so excited by the landing that she kissed Karen for the first time. It was dark by the time we landed, but I can tell we are in a much more westernized city than Guiyang, and perhaps even Beijing. Cruising down a large smooth highway into town at 75 mph felt so fast. The famous (among adopters) White Swan Hotel seems pretty nice. There is another adopting family next door (I hear a child once in while). Tomorrow morning is more official stuff and I am tired, so good night from us and good morning to you!
