Holy smokes!!

We’re HERE!! What a whirlwind! Don’t really have time to get into the details (we’ll save those for our updates on Shepherd’s site) but we made it! It turned out to be a relatively bump-free travel day, all 27 hours of it 😉
We found out tonight when we landed in Guangzhou that we will be meeting Shepherd TOMORROW (which is actually today since it’s 1:05 AM here on Monday morning) and, needless to say, my stomach is doing backflips!! We can’t WAIT!!
