It's going to be a looooong day. It's only 11 am here in China.
We're ready to go, but our China Southern airlines flight doesn't
leave until 9 pm. We're also anxiously waiting for our guide Kelly
to call with Vivian's passport and visa. So Bill and Tyler are
playing card games while Vivian watches and I'm about to take a
nap out of sheer boredom.
Hopefully Vivian will sleep through most of the 12 hour flight, but
we'll see. We arrive at LAX at 6 pm, which is in the middle of the
day China time. Hopefully she'll be in a good mood as we pass
through immigration and for the drive home. And hopefully going

through customs/immigration won't take that long. I don't remember it taking that long with Tyler,
but with all the changes that have happened since then who knows.
Vivian woke us up at 6:30 this morning even after going to sleep late last night, but she and her
brother seemed to entertain each other. Vivian is now totally in love with her brother even though he
sometimes is a little rough with her. She's a tough little girl and rarely cries after falling or being
pushed around. We can't wait to get her home.
We'll be seeing you all back home!
