China Itinerary
Well....
The flight arrangements have been made. We leave Friday 12/5 from Nashville at 6:45am (on one of the smaller planes I REALLY don't like!!) 2 hours to Newark and then we leave at 11:15 direct to Beijing, China!! We are spending the night there and leaving the next morning to go straight to Chongqing - at 11:25 arriving in at 2:00. (Beijing will probably be on the cooler side and Chongqing is in the 50's)
Once in Chongqing we are staying at the Marriot and you should google it, quite a tall and nice looking hotel. I guess we will get our selves settled, get our Nanny gifts ready, eat, play in the pool and sleep!
Monday afternoon we get to meet Aric!! Right now I am thinking that between Saturday when we arrive in Beijing and ESPECIALLY once we are in HIS city and so very close, it will drive me nuts to not actually have him with us. We meet him at the Civil Affairs Building and this is not open on Sunday.
Tuesday we do some paperwork. Hoping that doesn't take all day!! Then we will have some free time to play with boys and get to know Aric. Hopefully he will allow me to kiss those cheeks.
Wednesday we are going to two different parks in Chongqing - hoping that the weather is good for that day. As it rains a lot in Chongqing. Even though right now is the LEAST precipitation time of the year. It still rains quite a bit.
Thursday we will visit the local zoo (they have Pandas!)
Friday visit Old Town Chongqing and then fly to Guangzhou, China at around 5:00pm arriving at around 7:15. GZ sounds nice the weather there is supposed to be fairly warm and sunny. Woo Hoo!!
Saturday we will take Aric to have his Visa photo taken and his Medical Check up.
Sunday - Church at 10:30 and the Safari Park in the afternoon
Monday - Guide goes to US consulate to take our paperwork
Tuesday we go to US Consulate to take our Oath!
Wednesday - leave GZ to Beijing - Newark and then HOME!!
