We arrive in Tiefa

---

Don't ever take two sleeping pills! The upside is the plane ride goes really, really fast, the down side is it is hard to get out of the stooper!

We left Chicago, stopped in Washington, Dulles, for breakfast. I will never diss a travel lounge again, what luzury to sit in the VIP lounge.

We flew over Canada, saw ice floating in St. George Bay, and then sleep. Arrived Bejing on time and caught a plane to Shenyang. We were picked up there by van with a friend of Haihong and arrived to alovely apartment.

The first day was busy, Tai Chi in the morning, breakfast with the best friend mushrooms ever, a hike up to the temple, lunch,and nap and then .... a massage by 3 blind masseuse, I kid you not, it was wonderful. NOra and Mike went dancing, but Andrew is sleeping, and Haihong and I are staying home with baby Sara.
