It’s Official, I’m Going to China!



I had a knock at my door this morning while I was talking to Rachel on skype and FedEx had arrived with a package…I was expecting something, but not for a few more days. Turns out it had arrived early!

I now officially have a US passport (as well as a Chinese visa)!!!
For the first time in my life, I can actually travel outside of the US!
So I’m all set to go now, in 8 days I’ll be leaving for China!
I had said from the start that I wouldn’t believe it until I got the passport in my hands, and now I can finally take a breath, and worry about leaving, instead of worrying if I could leave. I think Rachel is a bit disappointed I wasn’t bouncing around more, but I’m still in shock about it. I keep expecting to wake up.
Rachel was a huge help to me in getting it done, and making sure I had everything I needed to secure the visa, I don’t think I could have done it without her, and now we can finally see each other in her home country!
I know she’s got a full visit planned for me, I don’t think there will be much time to rest once I get there.
I’ll see if I can keep everyone updated while I’m there, if I have time.
