Tuesday - last post from China

All the paperwork went smooth and is complete at the US Consulate. Tomorrow we have the "oath ceremony" where we will have no pictures because we are not allowed to even bring a camera in the building. This morning we played in the "Swan Room" which is a baby play area in the White Swan Hotel with many babies from our group. Anna received lots of attention playing ball and chase with me and other adults from our FTIA group as Grace finished her half hour morning nap. After waking Grace liked playing ball and playing with the small kitchen. Anna and I did a little shopping, just the two of us, in the afternoon. Last night, the three families with Yangxi babies from Guangdong Providence tried a little local restaurant that Margie found. The food was great and atmosphere even better.

Roy started packing dirty clothes today, and we are excited about only one more day until traveling home, Roy wasn't feeling so well today- he said he had really low energy but was a trooper joining us on outings. He doesn;t think he is getting sick, maybe it is just the jet lag catching up with him. This will be our last post until we are home. We fly out early Thursday morning (Wed evening Indy time) starting at Guangzhou to Tokyo to Detroit to Indianapolis. For those meeting us at the airport, it is Northwest Airlines landing at 6:33pm from Detroit. Thanks for all the support we have received!!!!
