Monday May 8th


Happy Birthday Grandad love Karl, Ross and Savannah. Today is gotcha day and we leave in three hours to get Savannah. We woke up at 2:00 am this morning and had a tea. We hope to be back to our room around 5pm our time and then later on around 8pm I hope Savannah will be asleep and we will download photos.
We had a late lunch yesterday and its pretty cheap. Drinks cost more than dinners. Beer is about $2.00 and whole bottles of wine about $5. Kaye had a cappuccino and it was the same price as a bottle of wine. Shopping yesterday and we were on TV. A local TV station interviewed one of the mothers and we saw it last night on the news. Couldn't understand what they said but at least we saw it.

Sorry for the delay in updating but I had trouble with the blog Saturday. Well we are here and very, very tired. We are in Guanzhou, just been to pick up water. We keep waking up at 3am its going to take a week to adjust. We get Savannah 2pm Monday, the babies have to take a 6 hour bus ride to meet us (so she maybe cranky). Well its 6:29pm and we are going to bed. The flight was ok, very long. I do not have photos yet hopefully Monday. For my friends at work, I can only eat the bare minimum, you know what I am like with food. Wish I had took Mandarin or Cantonese it would have been easier.

Anyways going now more updates Monday, hopefully photos, we need sleepppp.
