Today's the Day!

We head to the airport in about 14 hours. Jeff has to go to work. The nanny will come to play with Zoe, and I will finish up....everything. Our clothes are packed and by the door. We still have toiletries, electronics, and trip entertainment stuff to pack. It doesn't seem like we still have that much to do, but my written out list is still scary.

I was so hoping for another update on Yu Yu. I know our agency asks for one before travel, but even if it comes today, it won't do much good. His clothes are packed and they're not getting unpacked! We'll just buy more in China if we need to. We have a lot of free time in Guiyang, and our hotel is next to Wal-Mart, so Yeah!

In fact:

Look in the upper right corner. See the tall building with the blue cone on top? That's our hotel. Now look on the other side of the river, and across the street. See that open grassy rectangle? That's a park. Underneath that park is the Wal-mart. An underground Wal-mart! I expect we'll spend lots of time there! I've also heard there's a mall close by with a ToysRUs and an American ex-pat coffee shop. Somehow, I think we're going to be just fine.
