Aimee and I have safely arrived to our hotel room at the Shanghai Renaissance Hotel. The process of getting through customs was really easy. Although, it was definitely a unique experience to walk along a carpet roped path with dozens of people alongside holding up signs. When we found the sign that read, "Mr. Ryan Bowman", we knew we were on our way.
The Chinese are very hospitable thus far. The hotel personnel and our hostess from JCI are super nice and accomodating. Their english is good but not great. I had fun teaching our JCI hostess how to pronounce "itinerary". Aimee is already asleep and preparing for a big day tomorrow. "Cathy" from the relocation company escorts us around town tomorrow to look at housing options.
We'll try and get some pictures posted tomorrow.

Trying again...I left one comment earlier but it did not show up. Kids are doing great playing outside on a sunny day. Only a few tears (mostly Austin's). Anna and Jake are doing great. Elijah found his brave side and was going down the slide by himself. Again, congrat's on a safe trip. We will continue the prayers
