Day 12 – Saturday May 17 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADELINE!!!

Last night dinner was Cantonese and it was very good. The menu choices were different and we took some photo’s; silk worm, water beetles, sand worms, eels, snake, turtle, frog…We choose chicken. We hear it tastes like silk worm. Across the Pearl river they light up the buildings like billboards. We will attempt to take other pictures. Last night was so humid that the air was very thick and it was difficult to take photo’s from such a distance.

This morning we meet up with the other two families we first meet in Beijing and got a chance to meet their adopted children. So cute. They flew in from the Province their children are from late last night. We have only had a chance for small talk so far as we all had adoption business to take care of this morning; Photo for VISA , paper work check and medical exam. This afternoon we all meet for tea, get to celebrate Madeline’s birthday with the group, have a chance to hear their stories and to meet two other families in our travel group.
