here is the latest from "uncle morgan" our guide on our journey to joy:

Updates from China regarding our Possible Trip to YuanLing: From Director Ms. Zhao last night, everyone @ Orphanage (including the foster families) even the YuanLing County Magistrate himself is exciting and expecting to meet all of us on Aug. 6. We may expect a feast dinner with Orphanage staff & some top-level officers of YuanLing County on Aug. 6 - at YuanLing Orphanage Dinning Hall. Ms. Zhao said they will try their best to make us feel at home during our 2-day stay @ YuanLing - Food wise: we may have all three group meals (Dinner on Aug. 6 & B +L on Aug. 7) at YuanLing Social Welfare Institute (SWI) since Ms. Zhao promised to offer us good, authentic, healthy/clean, not-too-spicy, no-MSG, local flavor HuNan food for us with very reasonable charge; Hotel on Aug.6 - Ms. Zhao already locked one best available hotel there (5 minutes away from SWI) for us - maybe 2- 2.5 star -:) but for sure with A/C & hot water for shower/bath, they will try to start to do deodorizer for ours rooms and make sure at least less-smoking smell for one night on Aug. 6 (No non-smoking rooms in countryside of China -:)). We may have to pay CASH to this Hotel @ YuanLing (around $35 per room) since the Orphanage has to pre-pay for us (including Driver & a local guide from ChangSha). For the Hotel Room @ ChangSha on Aug. 6 - you could either retain or cancel your room - if retain you have to pay room that night; if you cancel you have take all your stuff with you to YuanLing or leave some at the Hotel Lobby (with or without fee?- not sure) but you have to re-check in your hotel on Aug. 7 (maybe late night) and also Hotel can't guarantee you the same room so you may reassign to different room on different floor of group stay. ; Car to YuanLing - already booked a 45-seat bus with EXCELLENT AC (double checked & confirmed) & maybe DVD/VCR for our possible 8 hour - karaoke contest or movie display but no bathroom on bus so ............ -:)

i better start practicing my ABBA for the karaoke contest!
