Here is the view out of our window...I have been overwhelmed at how big each city has been we've been in and how many people, markets, restaurants, vendors and stores there are here! It really seems the city never sleeps. The people have been very friendly and very curious as we are out as to why and how we have a Chinese son. There have been lots of pictures taken from the curious onlookers.
We had our Consulate Appointment this morning and everything went well. The appointment was basically a group of about 15 adoptive families taking an oath saying we have been honest about all the information we have given and then giving our paperwork over to be checked and stamped which then allows Hudson his visa which we should get tomorrow afternoon.
We had a low key day after that because Matt woke up feeling sick to his stomach which he still has. Prayers appreciated that in the morning he will feel much better.
Tomorrow night will be our last evening here. The hotel lobby has been transformed into a Christmas wonderland and there will be caroling, the lighting of the tree, food, and even a Santa appearance tomorrow evening. It should be a good send off!
We are hearing rumors of snow and ice heading our way back home?? Is that true?? How much and when?? We really really really do not want any delays in our return home Saturday evening!!!
it is true! Ugh. No one had school today and you would think this town has never seen snow before. My guess is that everything will be find for your travel. It is to stop tonight and should be clear by your arrival. Happy Anniversary by the time you read this too.. just think, it will be the longest anniversary day you ever celebrate. We will be praying for your travels. Did you get him his own seat? I never asked. Just think... you are almost done. Missing you like crazy.
