This is the Mandarin Garden Hotel, where Mr. G. and Katie will be staying in Nanjing.
It is 6pm Friday night, and I just got off the phone with Mr. G. Where he is now, it is 6am on Saturday!
He said that when the plane flew over Greenland, he could see giant cracks in the ice. He didn't take a picture, but I sure wish he did!
His hotel is nice and right near a busy shopping area. He said that the beds are hard and low to the ground, and there is no dresser in the room. Gaming is very popular there, and they have areas where people can play cards and chess.
Tomorrow he will learn more about the area and get all of the paperwork together for Katie's adoption. His guide, Denise, will meet him at the hotel and drive 40 minutes to the Civil Affairs Office. There, he will meet Katie at 10:00am on Monday (10:00pm Sunday night in NY). After that, he will go back to the hotel and they will call home! I expect to hear from them sometime around midnight. I can't wait!!!
