Dan fore dan

At the Great Wall yesterday.
It truly is an amazing constructure. The wall goes right at the summit of the mountin. Just imagine the workers carrying all the stone!

The birds nest.

Fagelboet, som ska anvandas till invigningen av OS i Peking nasta sommar.
Pa vag till Changsha.


All the donations we brought from Europe. Several friends have contributed and the gift contains more then 130 pieces of clothes and shoes. In addition, a huge bag of toys. And this evening, our local guide "mr Smile" (they all take western names and some are a bit special) took me to the local babies' stuff shop and to the electricity shop. Thanks to generous money donations I was able to buy seven walkers (gastolar) and one air conditioner, whih makes both hot and cold air. I thought I was going to buy a radiator but they don't believe in it here, apparently.

Ok, time to get some sleep (hopefully through the night) and tomorrow is the big day!

Och det ar svart att tro att det ska bli sant. Forra gangen var vi sa fokuserade pa det som komma skulle, den har gangen har vi fullt upp med Olivia och annat ... visst ar det spannande, men inte alls lika odesmattat som for tva och ett halvt ar sedan. Daremot kanner man igen sig mycket i de som blir foraldrar for forsta gangen. Oron over att inte lyckas blanda den perfekta vallingen, eller om fyra blojor kan vara tillrackligt for en timmes utflykt, till exempel!

Dags att ga och lagga sig. Mats och Olivia (som for visso sov bade pa planet hit och pa bussen fran flygplatsen) snarkar redan. Jag forsoker halla mig vaken en stund till och hoppas pa en sammanhangande period sedan i stallet.

Wish us good luck tomorrow!
