China

Steve went to China at the end of January for 2 weeks for work. He got his visa in the morning and by the afternoon he was on a plane. He flew from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas then to San Fransico over seas (14 hour flight) to Hong Kong, then another 3 hour flight to Shingdow (this is really how they spell the word "Qingdao") where the factory was. All this BY HIMSELF! Carl (the factory guy) picked him up at the airport and took to his hotel and the factory, he took good care of him

Coming home was an adjustment. When we are asleep, china is awake. So Steve would wake up at 3 am hungry because it was dinner time in china. He wanted to sleep in til 3 pm because he couldn't get to sleep til 6 am. That's why I flew to San Fransico when he came home so we could spend a couple of days getting him back on ameria's time. He as a lot better when we got home but it still took him a good week.

Just glad he got back safe.

Next time we'll see if the wife can go (ha ha).

Enjoy!
