Today was another great day with our daughter! We had a good breakfast and then had her visa photo made! It was great, they did it right here in the hotel! Then we all loaded up and went for her physical. We felt like cattle! Lol! It wasn't too bad! One of the doctors actually told her some things to do in Chinese and she followed his direction, he seemed impressed! We were too! She is a very smart girl! They determined that she was perfect! We already knew this! There were 3 different stations we went to, weight and height, ENT and general surgeon! All was fine, they looked at her scar and "checked" her out! Then she fell asleep on the way back to the hotel and took a great nap! I had to meet with our guides and dod paperwork for tomorrow! Jason and Maggie are awesome, we get a daily itinerary of what we are going and when! It's great! After all the paperwork we were off to the pearl market for a little retail therapy! Just what every girl needs! And boys too! Lol! We felt pretty successful there! We got the girls necklaces,Mommy a few goodies and a few surprise! Then we came back to the hotel and they were going for a group dinner, but it was Cantonese and I didn't think I would like it ver much so we stayed in and ordered pizza! Our friends Jeff, Amy and Luke came over and we had dinner and the kids played! It was a nice evening! Then it was bath and bed time for Emery! She and her daddy are both sleeping as I'm typing!
Tomorrow we go for our Consulate appointment in the morning and in the afternoon we are hoping to go to Shamian(sp) Island tomorrow afternoon for a little more retail therapy! Then Tuesday her visa will be picked up and we will be in our way to Hong Kong! I can't believe we are this close to coming home, but boy are we ready!
Thanks for all the prayers! I will keep updating, please keep commenting and keep us connected there!
Hugs and love to all,
Renee
