After clearing customs, etc... we were met by Kim. Kim and I have chatted online over the past couple of years. One of her daughters and Katelyn are from the same SWI. Kim now lives in Shanghai and is one of the amazing Baobei ladies!!! We then met with several more wonderful Baobei ladies (Tracy, Christine, Kelly, Laura and Cathy Sue), a couple of Baobei children and Noah, the dog! I am so grateful to the ladies we met with today. We have learned just how much Courtney is loved and how deeply she will be missed. Thank you so much, ladies, for all you shared!!
Tomorrow we will visit the hospital where Courtney received her surgery. Hopefully we'll be able to meet with Dr Bao as well. We'll also meet with several more very important people.
For now, it's time to go to bed... we had a very full day, and it's now time to crash!

Hi Nicole - I am looking forward to reading of your adventures. I can't wait to read about meeting Courtney.
Much love to you and Scott,
Amanda, Duncan and Hope (Steve, too, but he's in Paris and hasn't read your blog.)
So happy your flight went well. Have a wonderful time.
SO glad you are there...sounds like quite a 'day one'! Can't wait to hear more. Hugs!
Glad you made it safely. I spoke to Kim (email) and she told me that she met you guys at the airport. Glad you finally got to meet her face-to-face. I miss her and her wonderful family so much. :o( And Cathy Sue...what a DOLL she is!
BTW, when Neil and I fly we usually book both the window and aisle seats since the last seats to sell are the middle seats. Most of the time we end up w/the whole row to ourselves! On the few occasions that someone did end up purchasing the middle seat, they are always happy to slide to the window seat when we tell them that dh and I are together. Just an FYI I thought I would throw out there. :o)
Nicole,
So excited you are there and I"ll be stalking, esp anticipating Gotcha!!
I wish it was me all over again - you're a lucky mama.
Love,
Christy
Awesome Nicole. Enjoy, thanks for posting. Glad it was an uneventful flight, even with the cheerleaders. LOL

Blessings,
Ash
