Today we took a two-hour train ride to Hong Kong. Last time we took a van, and decided to try something new this time! The ride itself was nice, but it was a bit of a hassle with passports and luggage and filling out the leave China/enter HK forms. But all in all it was fine. There was a nice American guy on the train who talked to us most of the way about living in Guangzhou and about our adoption trips. When we got here, we had to get two taxis to our hotel, but it was a quick ride. The people here are all afraid of a typhoon that is supposedly coming tonight, but we are snug in our rooms and fine. Praying that the storm goes over quickly and all is calm by tomorrow morning when we catch our l-o-n-g flight to Seattle and then to home.
Pics from our train trip: Caylie sat with Daddy.
I sat with creepy-eyed boy. (Why does he do that??)
Samuel's seat was beside Justin, but this lasted for about 2 minutes. Samuel was up and around the whole time. Fortunately for him, they don't care if you sit in your seat, or even if you stand up. I don't know what's going to happen on our very long plane trip tomorrow!
Justin being Justin.
Sometimes Samuel stood here, watching some ladies play cards. Sometimes he sat with the American guy who spoke Chinese. Sometimes he sat on my lap. Sometimes he stood down by the bathrooms. Sometimes he sat in his own seat and leaned over the back, so he could see the lady with the baby. He can entertain himself well, if given the opportunity, haha. But again, tomorrow will be a different story! Please pray for him. It's going to be a very long day (+ 14 hours!)
