The View From Our Room



We slept about 6 hours last night on our nice HARD matress, and we are good to go!! (not!) We just finished breakfast at the hotel. The food was just ok. We mainly just filled up on pasteries and juice. Bethany is surly going to starve to death! She even turned down a doughnut. I don't know what she is going to do when we run out of junk food brought from home. Off we go for a day of sight seeing. Children's Hope is taking us on a guided tour of the Temple of Heaven this morning. We are eating lunch at Dai Jia Cun Restraurant. This afternoon we will do the Hutong Tour and see the Chinese Acrobat Show. If I am not completely exhausted I will tell you about it tonight (or your tomorrow!)

hi chad and kristy, this is nicki from christian action (CA), the organization in hk which has been co-managing the xining children's home (XCH) with the xining civil affairs bureau since it opened in 1998.

guessed you had an exhausted sightseeing day in beijing?

i am so thrilled that anna li has finally found her new family. oh and i am the one who drafted the answers to your 26 questions you asked through jill. and most important is that anna will grow up under Jesus' love and protection in a christian family that we have all hoped for.

i would we can send you some photos of anna's when she was little but i cant attach them here right? so please write me an email so i can send them to you. talk to you later.
