Fellow Virtual Travelers,
For those we've heard from thanks for the well-wishes! We are doing good so far and are in Shanghai living the high life! Checked into the hotel here about 9 pm on April 20th and have discovered wi-fi in the room! That is a first ever for us! And will change tomorrow as we head to the remote areas, no doubt!
We did connect with Karl (our co-traveler) at the hotel. Missed each other at the airport because our flight from Seattle came in early, so we were already through immigration and customs, while he was looking for us at the baggage claim! The times of IIWII have begun - it is what it is!
We won't have time to see Shanghai sites on this end of the trip, but you can check it out online:

After living a Day Without A Night on the airplane (the sun was shining on us the entire flight), we're off to Wudangshan tomorrow! This will begin the unknown internet time, so don't worry if you don't hear from us every day!
Blessings,
Dennis&Anita
