1/27/2010 3PM Mountain Time

We are in the air over the sea right now, on our way to China. We woke up at 3AM to catch a plane to San Francisco where we boarded a large plane non-stop to Beijing. This flight will last 12 hours. The day will be long and we will be landing in Beijing a day later as we will cross the International Date Line at some point in the trip. We will land in Beijing at around 3PM local time on 1/28/2010. Considering the math, I think it’s about a 20 hour day. We are anticipating meeting Charlotte on Sunday evening in Nanchang. We will be meeting 5 other families in Beijing for the same purpose.
