On
Thursday we had to meet with our guide and get some things from her and the
rest of the day we did pretty much whatever we wanted to do. We walked to the
mall and ate at KFC. I wasn't sure if the girls would like it, but no need to
worry. They loved the chicken and fries and the ice cream we got afterwards. We
like to get out of the hotel some as Piper and Tess can definitely use the
exercise -- we were truly hoping to tire them out. Didn't really work.
We
got up this morning and got Starbucks coffee and then packed our bags to leave.
We got everything packed and then we went and picked up Tess's passport. From
there we went to the airport -- seems like we are always going to the airport
lately. Anyway, we got there and our flight was delayed so we sat around trying
to keep the girls entertained.
Finally,
we left and I was pretty excited about going to Guangzhou. Being there meant we
were getting closer to being done. It was only about a two and a half hour
flight and Tess got sick and vomited four times. I think it was motion
sickness. Once we landed she seemed fine, though I didn't give her much to eat
just in case.
Piper
and Tess get along pretty well at times and other times they are hitting and
kicking and pushing each other. And Tess is doing much of the pushing to my
surprise. Piper clearly wants me to herself. She is all over me most of the
time. She rubs my face, messes up my hair, rubs my arm, my leg, hangs on me,
takes my hand and makes me pat her head, wants me to rub her head, etc. she is
on me almost every minute that she isn't pushing Tess. And she LOVES to point
out when Tess is doing something I have said not to do. After she points out
what Tess is doing, she puts her head in my lap and enjoys the moment.
So,
tomorrow we have medicals at 8:20. Hoping all will go smoothly. I'm not sure
what else we have to do. Hopefully not too much. I'm just glad to be this far
in our journey. A little over a week and we will be on our way home!
