About 30% of the population in Fuzhou still practices Buddhism and the rest are Christians and other religions. It is an amazing transformation over the years as the Chinese have been given more religious freedom.
We all continue to bond, laugh and get to know one another - it is great to see the increased comfort level among everyone. We were able to Skype this morning with my sister, and while doing so, Lauren took my hand and gave it a kiss. My sister was so moved - it was such a special moment! Last night we watched Beauty and the Beast on the computer and she really enjoyed it! We ordered in room service and the chicken alfredo was actually quite good, as were the french fries - anything to give us a little taste of home:) The boys are doing so well at home and are off to a good start at school - we miss them terribly, but again, so good to be able to Skype with them!
Tomorrow we receive Lauren's passport and then head to the airport at about 4 p.m. We then have a 7:30 flight to Guangzhou and we will feel so good to be in the same city as our other daughter, Jin Qing. We will not meet her until Tuesday and those days will drag endlessly, but at least we are heading in the right direction:)
