We've gotten a little behind on entries here in China because the internet connections are pretty slow...and we've been doing some traveling outside of cities....(we hope to fill in the gaps in the next couple of weeks)

We leave the morning of the 27th (July) from Beijing and head to Moscow. We are taking the trans-siberian railroad. We'll be on the train for 6 days straight, watching the world go by....
We arrive Moscow August 1st. Jim's mom, Mary will be meeting us in Moscow the next day. We're both so excited to see family!!! It's been a long time!
