After a long, long 24 plus hours travel we are here in Nanachang, China. The flight was nota s horrid as I thought it would be. Hit a wall of exhaustion and could not get comfortable to sleep.
When we got to Shanghai, we were met by our new friend Leanne. She is an ex-pat living there. She and her husband just adopted their daughter in March and she is from the same orphanage as Xiao Yue! They also have a teenage daughter. We only got to see Leanne this time due to colds and naps. She treated us like celebs. Took us to Starbucks and then treated us to a foot massage. An hour of the most amazing pampering. They massaged not only feet and legs but neck and shoulders too. Boy, did THAT make a difference after the flight. The strongest hands ever. Cool place with private rooms. I LOVED IT!!! Thanks again dear Luanne, my Shanghai fairy godmother! Till we meet again, this time with the girls reunited.
The hotel seems nice. Yes, the bed is rock hard. We will see how we sleep, we are so tired. Not too sure how tomorrow will play out but it seems like we will meet her mid-day. Tha you all for the support that brought us here, to this moment. Xoxoxox
