Yesterday I left Wuhan. That's all, it's not even worth saying any more. I will miss Candy and a few of the kiddos, but that's about it. Candy said she will be coming to Beijing to visit and that makes me very happy :)
Now, on to today. Holy cow it was sooooooooooooooo great to FINALLY be with my roomie!!! I woke up and when I registered that I was, in fact, in my bed in Beijing....my heart actually fluttered. Seriously. We had such an amazing day. We both slept in a little, and when I woke up I got right to work moving my stuff into my room. I was tired of waiting to feel settled in China and it was going to happen today. The day went like this: moving in, lunch at our favorite dumpling restaurant, donuts, cold stone, shopping for household supplies and groceries and spending wwwwwaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy too much money, coming back to the apartment and finishing moving in and arranging my room, and finally dinner at the amazing Indian restaurant that Chelsie discovered in the foreigner hub of town that is only 4 bus stops away from us, and finally a mango for dessert to cap off the day. We decided the calories didn't count today because we were celebrating. Photographic evidence of my best day in China thus far:
