Off to China

On Wednesday evening we're going on a family holiday to China. It will be the first time our daughters have been back to China since they were adopted in 1998 and 2001. As part of the trip we're going to visit our older daughter Mae's orphanage which Karen and I have never seen. Its going to be an emotional jorney but we're all very excited about it.

We're flying to Hong Kong, then going to Xiamen, before we take a trip to Long Yan with our guides to the orphanage. After, we're going to spend a week on the tropical Hainan Island before returning to Hong Kong for some siteseeing and possibly a trip to Disneyland. We're going with some friends who have got three adopted children so there will be a big gang of us.

Not sure what to expect. Not sure how we'll all feel. Will try and record what happens and post some pics on the blog.
