The G Family Goes to China!

After years of planning (literally), we are in a final countdown to our big trip back to China! Our family is beyond excited for the adventure we are about to embark on - and we are grateful that we will be travelling with a few other families who will share in our experience.

After debating between going in the summer or on the winter break, we ended up booking during the winter break. Our girls are from provinces in the south of China, so the temperature in the summer has one setting - HOT. We just couldn't envision touring all day and having the kids last through the heat. So - Christmas in China it will be!

This trip to China will give the girls an opportunity to visit the places of their beginnings, such as their orphanages and foster families, and to get to know their home country and culture at a deeper level. We will be travelling through Hong Kong, the provinces of Guangdong, Guilin, Jiangxi, and Beijing.

Our tickets are booked, the itinerary has been altered and updated more times than I can count, we have almost finished getting all of our shots, and the excitement builds every day. Bring on the adventure!
