7/14 - Arriving Dalian

From Beijing, we transfer to ChinaAir and fly to Dalian, where we will visit my friend Cathy. I had asked her how to get from the airport to her place in email, so she proceded to do so. As my anxiety grew while reading the specifics, it was quickly dissipated when she wrote she was joking. She and her driver pick us up from Dalian. We are all hungry so we stop for pizza on Korean St. While we wait, Ella falls asleep in the car, and Nicholas falls asleep in the resaturant.

At Cathy's, we are happy to find Coca-Cola Light, China's version of Diet Coke. Ella displays for our friend, Marti.
