Leaving On Thursday!

Hi Everyone!

I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to post again. Things have been a whirlwind since I got my referral. I just found out last week that I'd be leaving for China THIS WEEK! I've been running around like a crazy person trying to get ready. There's so much to do! I first go go Beijing and spend a couple of days getting over jet lag and sight seeing. Then I fly to Nanchang which is in the province where my daughter is. I should meet her for the first time on Monday! After various appointments with civil affairs officials, Allison and I will travel to Guangzhou for our appointment with the American Consulate. We also will visit the U.S. Embassy and attend a ceremony there. Allison will get her visa to enter the U.S. From there we head home.

I will be sure to post lots of pictures and stories of our adventures so please check back soon!
