I’m still alive
It’s been a whirlwind the last few days. Take a look at this first… (RSS readers: there’s a video below)
How it went down:
Wednesday morning: book international flight, Beijing to Atlanta via Toronto
Wednesday afternoon: book domestic flight, Jinan to Beijing
Wednesday night: Pack. Visit students.
Thursday, 6 a.m: Leave apartment for train station. 30 minute car ride.
Thursday, 7 a.m: Train ride to Jinan. 2 hours.
Thursday, 9 a.m: Arrive Jinan, 1 hour taxi ride to airport.
Thursday, noon: Depart Jinan, arrive in Beijing one hour later.
Thursday, 7:00 p.m: Flight leaves Beijing for Toronto. 12+ hours in the air.
Thursday, 8:00 p.m(eastern time): Flight arrives to Toronto. Missed Atlanta connector.
Friday, 3:30 a.m: Leave hotel to catch shuttle back to airport.
Friday, 6:40 a.m: Leave Toronto for Atlanta
Friday, 8:00 a.m: Arrive to Atlanta

The surprise was the best! Now if we could get him to come home and visit with Mom & Dad but we have learned to share him. Everyone enjoy having him home.
Love You Biscuet!!

It was so good to have you home and sleeping in your bed. Couldn’t believe my eyes and couldn’t stop hugging you. Love always, Mom
