China update

As I write this, Brian is somewhere in the air over somewhere on his way to Beijing. After a busy week, he arose early this morning (3:15 am CDT to be exact), and left about 7 minutes later! (Planning ahead made it possible for a quick morning getaway.) He checked in briefly in the Chicago airport, and then as far as I know, got on the flight for Beijing. He is hoping that he'll be able to post pictures and updates from the road...so maybe we'll get an update soon!
