OK, we got word back that we did not get the reservation at the Central Hotel. It turned out good. Juergen found a web site called China for groups. They have the best hotel prices I've found so far in China! We got a rate of just 42€ per night on the Mandarin Garden Hotel, before I couldn't find this hotel for under 68€ per night. They say we have the reservation for 3 rooms. We will get a voucher in 12 hours. I hope this really is true...or I may need to look again! I'm excited because most of the families I know that adopt from Nanjing have stayed at this hotel. They all say it's great! I'm hoping it really is set!!!
