travel update

i got a voicemail from the china team at 7am this morning (7pm china time)...sounds like their travels have been extended :)
the message was a little confusing, so i will try to summarize:
they got into China to catch their connection flight to Guilin, but due to a delay, they sat on the runway for a few hours. once into the airport, they got flagged at security and had an extensive bag check on one of their bags. the team was then ushered into a line of over 1,000 people to get on their plane...after all of this, they nearly made it on their flight, but at the last minuet, the plane was full.
SO, they were scheduled to get on an 8pm flight (their time) and arrive in Guilin around 10 pm and to their hotel by 11 pm (11am sunday morning our time).
they missed the welcome party and meeting the officials as planned, but hopefully the welcome party will be rescheduled for monday.
i will let you know when i hear from them next.
china. it's always an adventure!
