Today we slept in and then packed for Guangzhou. We flew out at 2:30pm, which is just about Jaden's worst time of day. She was pretty grumpy for the first part of the flight and wouldn't really chew on anything, so I think her ears were bothering her. She finally went to sleep on me for a while but woke up when we started to descend and screamed for several minutes. Then after we landed, we made the mistake of loading her into the Baby Bjorn too soon and she threw one of her famous spicy fits while we waited to get off the plane (which took what seemed like hours). Of course, once we started moving, she was Miss Happy Girl again. What a stinker! Luckily, after that performance, she was perfect for the rest of the day. We went exploring in the White Swan Hotel and saw that is was full of American families that are also here adopting. One of our travelmates found a local Chinese restaurant that had an English menu so we decided to go to dinner there. The food was very good and Jaden was great at dinner and ate lots of rice off chopsticks. It was very inexpensive too (only 130 rmb ~ $16 per family). Jaden slept pretty well but is SO active at night. She's driving us crazy scooting around and kicking the mattress all night!
