China Trip Itinerary ~ Steph

We've been receiving lots of questions about our trip so we'll give a brief itinerary.

We fly out Wednesday, May 2 at 1:30pm.
We arrive in Shanghai Thursday, May 3 at 3:30pm (China time) Yeah! 14 hour flight!
We will visit Shanghai and surroundings until Sunday, May 6.
We are taking the train (high speed, though not super high speed) from Shanghai to Wuhan sometime Sunday afternoon.
May 7, in Wuhan, is our Gotcha Day!  Li Lin will be place in our care.  smiles... tears... more smiles... more tears...
May 8 is the formal adoption day and paperwork day.
We will visit Wuhan and surroundings May 9 and 10.
We will fly to Beijing sometime Friday, May 11.
From Saturday May 12 (Happy Birthday to me!) through May 13 (Happy Mother's Day to Sara and the 17 other new adoptive mothers) until May 16 we will be touring around Beijing with our adoption agency group.  There is more paperwork involved somewhere in there.  Li Lin will become a Canadian Citizen in China.
We fly out from Beijing Thursday, May 17 at 6:00pm
We arrive back in TO on Thursday, May 17 at 6:30pm (Toronto time) and will be picked up by a very excited Grandmaman.

We will fill you in on details, and hopefully pictures, as the trip proceeds.
Zai jian!
