Instead, we dined on the mystery meat on the ANA flight to Beijing and had burgers, cheese sticks and chicken wings (the last two were Jed's) at the hotel when we finally got checked in.
We were met at the airport by Grant, our guide, who drove us to the hotel and gave us a brief history of China, explaining a little of the city, mostly involving the millions of trees that are being planted to counteract all of the pollution. Even at night you could smell it - at first I thought there was something burning, but then realized this was just the air here in Beijing. Jed thought it smelled like snowboarding - something like the smell his snowboard gear took on after a day on the slopes...oooookkkkkaaayyyyy
stay tuned.....

Note to all the adoptive parents out there - the red bag in the picture is the diaper bag (thanks Chris and Declan) currently being used to carry all of the paperwork. Husband-san was carrying it and commented how heavy it was!!
