Today we traveled to the city of Nanning, which is the capital of Evie’s province (Guangxi) to meet our new guide and prepare for our family day. It is one of the Southernmost provinces of China, and was a 4 hour flight from Beijing. We were excited and nervous and our emotions were definitely elevated. We left our group and the people that we had grown close to over the past couple of days and boarded our flight in the most orderly boarding that I have ever seen without any groups or zones.
The flight was a little rough and at times gave us a good scare, but the friendly and hospitable crew made everything great. They were so kind and excited about us coming to adopt our little Evie. The flight crew even gave us a gift to give to her once we meet her. All of the people here in China have welcomed us with open arms and are so excited to see us, talk with us and introduce us to their country.
