We are finally in Fuzhou and it is 1:45 pm which for you folks at home that is 1:45 am. We have been almost 36 hours in airports and we are sick of it. I feel like I am still on an airplane. The whole flight experience was horrific. We still had an hour ride to the hotel from the airport. Boy! was they guy a great driver. I thought Shannon was going to puke on him. The traffic was horrible. Fuzhou is a capital coastal city with about 6 million people and none of them have had drivers ed. I dont recall seeing one single traffic signal. We did see one guy on a scooter pulling a tractor trailer. I would have paid to get a picture of that. Really it looked like he was pulling 4000 pillows with his scooter. The hotel is very nice and Shannon got really sick on the ride over with Evil Kenevil.
We missed our original appointment with Madeline so they are going to bring her to the hotel at 5 pm so look for pics about 7 or 8 your time. I would type more but I still have see legs or is it air legs. We have had about 6 hours sleep in the entire 36 and we have been in the same clothes. Oh yeah...everyone over here speaks Chinese so if you plan on coming make a note of it.
You know as I rode over to the hotel I realized how proud I am to live in the United States. God Bless our freedom and our way of live and God bless the US Military.
Hannah, Hayden and Camden...sorry we didnt call last night Daddy couldnt figure out the chinese writing on the phone and NO ONE SPEAKS ENGLISH...WE love you so much. We will call you this morning.

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will not enter it. And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them."
Mark 10:14-16
