Aaaaaaand we're back!

We made it safely back to China.  It was a grueling 14 hour international flight but Brady was a trooper.  It was nice to have our new friends, the Roark's, on board as well.  We'll be traveling with them almost the entire trip.  

It didn't take me long to make a new friend in my seat-mate.  I think Brad was jealous - he took this picture.

We also have Flat Stanley with us as well.  Hi to Mrs. Hahn and Mrs. Kastanek's classes!  You'll be glad to know Stanley made it safely.  Stanley says he's in Shanghai and wants you to find out some information on Shanghai today and let him know how it is the same and how it is different from Amery.

Brady says hi to all his friends in Mrs. Peter's class.  He's enjoying the hotel amenities.

It's 2:00 AM on Saturday here in Shanghai.  We are wide awake and having a party in our hotel room.  We are going to try to get some sleep because we have a big day tomorrow.  Our new friend Mary Ann will be picking us up and taking us to the Shanghai Healing Home where baby Paul has lived most of his life. We can't wait to meet his Nanny's and the other special people in his life.  Two more days to baby Paul!
