Today was busy just like yesterday. We had to pack our checked luggage tonight by 10pm. Our guide is having all of the luggage brought from the hotel to the airport tonight to be checked in because we all have early flights to our various provinces. So now all we have in our room is our carry on bags. Tonya and Robin are sleeping and I've got to get to bed because we have to be in the lobby to leave at 5:30am.
Here's what we did today:
Got up and had breakfast here at the hotel
Went to church at the International Christian Fellowship here in Beijing. It was very good.
Went to the Jade Factory.
Had Chinese food for lunch....best so far. Did a little shopping in shops adjacent to restaurant.
Went to the Great Wall.....awesome!
Went to dinner....still full from lunch...Chinese again.
Came back to hotel for about 30 min.
Went to an incredible Chinese acrobatics show....bought 2 hour DVD....hope it will play at home....it should on the laptop.
Need to get some sleep...tomorrow is the day....can hardly believe it. Please pray for our Gotcha Day.....got the butterflies already.

Okay, trying to do this again. It wouldn't let me post earlier (sorry if you get like 3 of these)! Anyway, just wanted to say that I love the pictures and we are praying for you because in just a few hours now your family of 3 becomes 4! Cannot believe the time has finally come!
Will be watching!

Mike, Tonya and Robin,
All the way from Minnesota, our prayers are with you as you anticipate meeting your new little girl. Thanks for the updates and the pictures. I check your blog many times a day just to see how you are doing. It is almost like being there with you.
