In China, 1 hour to Li-Na

Laura has asked me (Julia) to blog on her behalf as they cannot seem to be able to get into their blog site while in China. After a rocky start with loosing their suitcase and a bit of a room re-arrange, they are now settled in and ready for Li-Na.

To pass the time on Sunday they went to have some wedding photos taken, a tradition in China, to dress in amazing costumes and have stunning photos taken. Well, they arrived first thing in the morning and left at 7pm!! What a day, but Laura says they had lots of fun. Different hairstyles, false eye lashes and more dresses than you can imagine. Laura says she felt very spoilt and they were both shattered when they got back to their hotel. When they arrived back, Laura's mom was waiting for them and they went off to Lucy's for supper.

Laura and Eric have been up since 5am, ready and waiting to hold their baby in their arms today!! How exciting!! We are waiting with baited breath on this end to see that first picture and to hear all about it...... keep reading.....
