Hello from Shanghai-

After a flight that Patrick described as feeling like it lasted 4 days, waiting 1 1/2 hours in line to go through customs, finally locating our luggage- (they had put our flights luggage asside and no one seemed to know anything about it) THEN driving 1 1/2 hours to our hotel in traffic that rivals NYC in rush our we have made it to our hotel in Shanghai.
The kids are all tucked in, and have really been troopers. We made it to the Holiday Inn downtown Shanghai at about 6:30 pm, unpacked, ordered some room service and we are all off to bed . Pray they all sleep through the night, god knows they are tired enough.
I have some great pictures of us on the plane, but am just too tired to do one more thing tonight!

We do not have access here to read our blog- just to post, so any responses on the blog will not get though to us! You can email us at jimandsandyhoule@yahoo.com

Nighty Night-
Jim, Sandy, and four very tired children
