Flight Fiasco!

So, last night (April 19) at 6:30 pm I received an email from our Travel Agent stating that our flight from LA to Changsha was canceled and that the airlines booked us on a flight the next day which would get us into Changsha on Monday afternoon instead of Sunday afternoon. This is not good. We get Tierzah on Monday morning and this can't be changed.

There is no plan leaving a day early, but there is one leave 2 days early - May 19th. So, our Agent tried to book us there and the flight with full! We were placed on the waiting list. Our agent called the powers to be at Southern China Air ( and with the help of THE power to be) got us all (5 of us) on that over booked flight. Seat assignments too! PRAISE GOD!

I have been told this is the first of possibly many stumbles as we head toward this journey. Please continue to pray.

Thanks
Shannon

We have plane tickets!

It is official - we have plane tickets! We (Aaron, Piper, Vern, Sheryl and I) leave for Hunan on May 21, 2010 at 5:00 pm. We loose a day on the trip, so we get there at 10:00 on May 23rd! We take custody of Tierzah on May 24th. She'll be with us the remainder of the stay.

We have several appts while we are in China to finalize the adoption. We'll return back to Minnesota with our new baby girl on June 5th.

I'll post again when there is more to tell and we'll keep you posted while we are in China.
