We made it!

As Dad H reported yesterday, we made it. It was a LONG flight, but at least smooth and safe, so we're thankful for that. We didn't get too much sleep last night again, maybe 5-6 hours total, spread between 6pm and 2:30am China time, but are feeling a little rested. We just had a delicious breakfast - waffles and pastries. EJ had cocoa puffs and reported they tasted exactly the same. We are going to take a quick walk this morning before meeting our group for the tour to the Summer Palace and the zoo.

I hope to get back online this evening and upload a few photos. I'll try that. I am on the 2nd (newest) computer in the business center at the hotel. I was told I'm the first client on it.

To Mr. R. M., EJ's computer teacher, she would like to report that the keyboards look exactly the same in English. However, the interface on this blogger site is all in Chinese, so her mom is lucky to remember where all of the buttons are!!! So, she wants an "A" on her assignment! And Internet use costs $1 for 10 minutes. Not bad. Better than lugging around a laptop.
