Greetings from Beijing, where it's a lot cooler than our 2004 trip but we're just as exhausted as before!
We had a long but uneventful flight to China on Wednesday/Thursday. Yesterday took us to Tiannanmen Square, the Forbidden City and then to a Chinese acrobatics show that my Big Whos would have loved. Today saw the Great Wall, where a crew was filming a Visa commercial (Visa -- it's accepted everywhere, even on the Great Wall!). Pretty interesting!
Mom did a great job making it up the wall. We did a little power shopping too (when in Rome ...). Now our bags are packed for our morning flight to Nanchang, where we'll meet Who III Monday morning (Sunday night EDT). We can't wait!
We got an update on our newest Who: She has a little cough but is healthy, and is described as very active. She should fit right in!

Cool pic of Chang Cheng! It sounds like you've done two weeks of sightseeing in one day - and with jet lag at that! I'm glad you're able to post pictures and comments. I look forward to hearing about Cate! Say ni hao to your mom for me!

Yeah!! Good to know that you made it safely....we'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers and hope Who III will be feeling fine when you receive her.
blessings,
