Hello we made it! We're safe and tired. Our flight from SF to HK was 13 hours and 30 minutes give or take a few minutes. We landed about 5am local time and it was 85 degrees! we're debating about what Greenwich Mean Time is and we got free socks. cathay pacific rocks! Our flight from HK to Chengdu went well it was two and a half hours and before we were let off the Quarantine Team came on board and used temperature guns and pointed it at our heads but thankfully we all passed! We've had several very interesting experiences here with the drivers and traffic in general. No one follows the traffic lights or crosswalk blinker things so imagine trying to cross safely! So in conclusion we're pretty tired so please keep our health and our safety in your prayers as we try to adjust to the culture and humidity quickly. And pray for the people we are about to work with and who we come in contact with. 

God bless,
China Team
