Our last post we had just arrived in Beijing. Saturday morning came very early. It was great to see Lineker and Sherry again. They are the same guides we had in 2001, with Brooke. After breakfast it was time to go to Forbidden City, Pearl Factory, and Summer Palace. Brooke is having a hard time with the food thankfully we have a good breakfast buffet and french fries at dinner. On the ride to the Hotel at night Brooke and I passed out.
Brooke got up at 2:30 AM Sunday morning and that made for a long day. First it was off to the International Church service. It was awesome and we really felt at home. Then it was off to the Jade Factory, Lunch, and the Great Wall. Brooke has made friends with some of the other girls and she is having a great time. She made it up to the 3rd watch tower on the wall. After dinner we went to the Chinese Acrobat Show. It was excellent even though everyone was so tired and several of our group fell asleep including Brooke.
LESS THAN 8 HOURS LEFT TO WE LEAVE TO GET KATIE. SOMETIMES IT DOES SEEM REAL, WE CAN WAIT.
BOYS WE MISS YOU VERY MUCH AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH. WOW 20 SEEMS LIKE NOT THAT LONG AGO WE WERE BRINGING YOU HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL.

Hi Shannon, Jeff and Brooke. If I remember correctly, today is the big day. I hope all went well with Katie. You must be very emotional and excited. It looks like you guys are keeping very busy. Hopefully time will fly by there. Hope to see you soon. Stay safe.
