Last Day in Guangzhou

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to drop a short post....we have to get up at 5:30 am to leave for the airport by 7.....off to Beijing tomorrow.  the part of our trip with no paperwork, no appointments, just lots of learning and family time!  And, I cannot wait to see my friend LINDSAY who leaves in the morning to come get her sweet lil' one from the same province as Florie!
Today, we went to the Safari Park in guangzhou. It was incredible! We were there the entire day, and are all wiped out. The boys had an amazing experience, but I will let them post about that tomorrow....about them posting, hmmm, before we left i had grandiose plans for them to write in their journals daily, to post often on the blog...honestly, we have been BUSY. We have not had a truly free day yet, and the only one coming up is the day we leave for home...but FLEXIBILITY is a good thing, so we are doing what we can and taking in all that we can as we go along.
Florie continues to do well, but has developed a preference for me....she adores her brothers, and loves to blow kisses to William and interact with him happily as long as I am holding her....needless to say I am so THANKFUL for the Ergo, Stefanie! She is no light cookie!!

I better go to bed...it is way past my bedtime.  Will post from beijing....we leave for home in one week. I am happy and sad about that!

Love,
Eve

Eve, looks like you are having the most memorable and terrific time. So glad Florie is showing you so much love. I am very nervous about that when we go. You all look so happy and complete. We are 1week away from article 5 pick up and up in the air still on travel. After TA, did you request the earliest CA possible or did you wait a little longer based on your travel availability of your family? Hoping for some light on when we might travel. Enjoy your trip-it has flown! So glad to be following along. Sydney

Hey Friend!! We totally miss having you around and seeing lights on at your house :< Missing all of you. It looks like Florie is fitting right it as a Boger!! Your dad was in for a few days this week - it was good to see him. He is looking forward to having you all home. All is well and the dogs are fine! No news is good news around here - enjoy your time and know Summer is just around the corner!!!

I KNOW the boys loved the Safari - right up their alley! Enjoy Beijing!

So glad you aren't weary from travel and you can look forward to Beijing. I like northern china food so much more! Maybe you can find those egg/leak dumpings....but not for Alex! Can't wait to see photos of all of you at the iconic places too!
Surgery went well. Intense pain afterwards. Took a while but got it under control with lots of meds! Home and doing better now. I'm going to work hard this week so I can be at the airport next week!!!
