Travel dates

We have our travel dates! We received our travel approval this past week and booked our tickets yesterday. We are so excited because not only is Mia traveling with us, but our nephew Bobby is too! He is like our own personal travel agent- he helped us upgrade to Economy Comfort for the flight to Beijing. Hopefully, we will all feel well rested when we arrive in China. We are leaving on 11/30 and returning on 12/15. We will spend a couple days touring Beijing, and then we will fly to Zhengzhou to get Lexi, either on 12/4 or 12/5. I will post our detailed itinerary as soon as we receive it.
