I made it! After the longest plane ride ( which was lucky enough to be full) and followed by the scariest car ride ever from the airport, I'm here. Plane ride was not that bad. Darn movies didn't work, but thankfully I'm reading the longest book ever! I also watched the "moving map." You know, were you get to follow you plane's travel to your destination! I think we literally went over the North Pole to get here. It was cool.
Once we arrived here, we showered and went out to our first Chinese eating experience. ("We" being my co-worker Lori and I.). Since no one at the restaurant spoke English, or gave indication that they did, we just pointed at pictures. Everything was fine except the soup. Apparently when you order "Chicken Soup" you better be prepared for A CHICKEN in A SOUP. Too funny!
Finally, we wound down the day with cocktails at the hotel. Our hotel has to be one of the nicest I have ever stayed in...and this comes from a former hotelier! The only thing left for me is sleep. As I write this it is 4am. I'm still trying to adjust! I'm going to give it a go again, wish me sweet dreams!
