Well we finally arrived at the White Swan hotel in Guangzhou. Our flight was supposed to land at 3 p.m. but as we were just about there, the plane started to circle the field. This went on for about 15 minutes and finally they came on the intercom and said that due to bad weather we couldn't land in Guangzhou and we were going to be re-routed to another airport. Our whole travel group was thinking "oh no, how long will it take by bus to get from this new airport to Guangzhou." But about ten minutes toward our new destination and they came back on the loudspeaker and said that the weather had cleared in Guangzhou and we were going back. So we arrived safely about 4:00 p.m. Then it was about a 40 minute bus ride to the White Swan hotel. But this is a lovely hotel (as all of you know who hve stayed here before) and we are glad to be in Guangzhou where there is great shopping! Both the girls did very well on their first plane ride! They both slept for a while and only cried for a minute so we hope this bodes well for our long trip home!
Little Lucy was running a fever last night and today so keep her in your prayers. She seems to be feeling better this afternoon so Julie and Bill will wait and see how she does tonight. The White Swan has a medical clinic with a doctor that speaks English so they can take her there if they need to. But tomorrow we will take the babies to have their visa photo and their medical checks done. Our guide Michelle says the doctor will look at Lucy's ears then and if they thing she has an infection, they will give her some antibiotics.
Only six more days till we come home!!!
