Visa applications are off to Lotus. They will received them at 10:30AM tomorrow. I spent quite a while on the phone with Kelley from Lotus figuring out when we are leaving and where we are going. She emailed me a tentative itinerary this afternoon. Then I passed on the info to Shari and Candi tonight. They will think it over and we will let Kelley know by Friday. At this point it looks like it will cost approximately $1000 more to spend 2 days in Beijing touring.
Now tonight, almost tomorrow, as I write in this I am wondering--do we want to go to Beijing or for less, stay in Guangzhou two days and then go on to Hefei? Of the decisions! Of course Mark doesn't care. I really want to see the Great Wall, but... I guess I will email Kelley and ask her how much we will save doing that. I also need to find a cheaper way to get to LA from here. Lotus wants $350.00 each for us to fly to LA on United. That is $1400! I am sure we can find something less expensive through an agency here.
I will email our group and let them know what the prices are and let them decide what they want to do. This will be our last trip to China for quite a while, part of me wants to shoot for the moon and see Beijing, but my practical side says stay in Guangzhou.
RaeAnne goes to day care tomorrow. She is laying here beside me wide awake at 11:30PM. She is going to be very hard to get up tomorrow! Somehow I managed to break the handle on the dryer today, so the repair guy is coming tomorrow morning. I need to start packing!
Hold on KaeLynn! Your family will be there soon!
