Our flights were all on time and no luggage was lost! That all has to be a good sign. We did have some nervous moments on the flight from Tokyo to Guangzhou. We were starting to experience some turbulance. The pilot then announced that we all had to make sure to buckle up our seat belts for the next 30 minutes or so because we were flying into a typhoon! Larry and I just looked at each other. I said a prayer, and I'm sure he did too. I think we were actually flying right above or to the side of it. It was pretty bumpy with some quick drops down and then back up. But it was over after about 20 minutes. We really weren't scared though, which surprises me, but I think God filled us with peace not to worry about it. We arrived at 11:00pm Sunday , or 11:am Sunday EST...almost exactly 24 hours from our Louisville departure. Guangzhou timeOur guide Samson was waiting for us, and got us to our hotel quickly. He's a nice guy and very personable, friendly and knowledgeable. We're in good hands.
Well, we leave to get Siena in about 2 hours, so we've got to get ready. I can't believe it the time is finally here. Please keep all of us in your prayers, especially Siena.
More later!
