Shanghai to home

Zian has settled into the change of a new environment. It did take her one day of being snuggly and little upset. We just comforted her and stayed in hotel and had play time. Our experience here is not as nice as Shamian Island Guangzhou. Hotel very sub standard to what we had there, The White Swan Hotel is geared for adopting families(58 while we were there) and business's on island as well. They spoke good English were child friendly, staff were exceptional and facilities to families amazing,ex, hotel had a kids playroom in hotel, laundry on street 1min walk, 2min walk 7 to 11, play park, 3 min walk diner.
Here we have found it hard to be understood, little English, hotel not clean,service not prompt, no laundry, no park close to hotel and streets not stroller friendly.
We are here in Shanghai to have Zian's medical done and her Australian visa.
We have both done and are leaving tomorrow afternoon.
We leave hotel at 11.30am to transit to airport. We fly to Hong Kong at 3pm and connect to a flight at 7pm to arrive in Melb on Wed morning at 7.30am. So 18hours of travel. Will be a big day for Zian and myself as i still cant walk, sit or move well from The stair climb.
The last week has been a drag due to missing the boys so much for both of us. We just want to start our living as a family with boys.
The boys have left to fly to Melbourne with nanny to visit Uncle Jay, Auntie Peggy and cousin Curtis and of course jnr McCallum/Stewart. I am hoping they aren't to tired from their busy weekend schedule they had.
They had Nath pick them up on Friday arvo to go to Footy training for Jake and Jordy,Tayn takes along.They slept over at magners. Sat am boys played first footy game 56-0,ouch!!!!!!. Sleep over again at Magners. Phamplet delivery run with Jordy and Paige Sun morning,then to be picked up by Jacobson's to go and watch Girls play soccer games than swimming than home to nanny again. I'm tired just thinking about how busy they have been.
Thanks all who have helped out with boys while we have been away.....

This will be my last post until settled in Melbourne or home i guess, Boys will want our attention and Zian will need to settle in again.
Thanks for following our journey to Zian.
Be sure this journey has only begun.Please keep checking blog..
All my love Jo
