I have spent the last week booking the details of the biggest trip of our lives! WE LEAVE IN 15 days!!!! I cant hardly wait! We decided that we would do the planning ourselves. The travel agency quotes were pretty pricey and we were finding better deals online! Without further ado, here is our itinerary:
-Leave Aug 21st at 8 am from Ohare
-Arrive in Shanghai Pudong on Saturday Aug 22 at 2:05 pm
-We will be in Shanghai overnight and staying at the Renaissance YuYuan Hotel Shanghai
-On Aug 23 we will take the train from Shanghai to Nanjing
-We will be staying at the Mandarin Garden
-Monday Aug 24 is SAMMY DAY!!!!!!
-leave Friday Aug 28th at 7pm to fly to Guangzhou
-We are staying in the Marriott China Hotel
-We have our Consulate Appt on Sept. 1st
-Leave Guangzhou on Sept 4 by way of a "bullet train" to Hong Kong
-Staying Sept 4th and 5th at Sky City Marriott Hong Kong
-Spend Sept 5 in Hong Kong Disney
-Return Home Sept 6 arriving at 8:45 pm!!
Hotels are booked, Flights are arranged, guides in Nanjing and Guangzhou are scheduled!!!
Bags are mostly packed..and I only have 3 days of work left!(Starting my FMLA a week early so I am not too stressed)
Please pray that all goes well with our itinerary and that it works out so Tim doesnt kill me :-) Really the reservations were pretty easy to put together and we are thrilled with the prices we got!
15 days...Did I mention that yet????
Blessings
