More Traveling News

We've decided to go ahead and leave this evening. Once the boys get home, and we finish getting ready, we're going to go to Charleston to spend the night. Our flight leaves so early in the morning, that if we don't - we might as well not even go to bed tonight. (If we did, I probably wouldn't sleep anyway, because I'd worry about getting there in time.)
Just in case anyone is the least bit interested, we're staying at the Best Western Premier in Beijing (www.mwpremierbj.com.cn) and at the Asia International Hotel in Guangzhou (www.aihotel.com).
We're traveling with 10 other families in our 'group'. 3 are relatively close by and live throughout OH. 4 others aren't too terribly far away, since they're from TN and NC. (The last 3 are AZ, CA, and FL.)
Quite by fate this week - we also found out that there's another family from right here in Mason County that's going to China to pick up their little girl this week too. We're going to meet them at the airport tomorrow morning. We're not on the same plane, we're not with the same agency, and we're not at any of the same hotels - but we do get to fly ALL the back with them on the 27th.
Oddly enough, call it faith or just call me crazy - but I have no concerns about our actual trip itself. My worries are all between now and getting on that silly plane. Once we get to that point, I have a feeling of peace about all the rest of it. And there's a lot to the rest of it - but none of that bothers me. I know it's all going to be fine. I just have to get to that plane first.
