Journey to Claire

A China Adoption Story

We decided to take it easy this morning. The group had an optional tour to a nearby village, but we needed a break. We met the group for lunch at a local reastaurant then went to the Tengweng Pavilion. This was the first sightseeing we have actually done. It was beautiful.

Oh Deb she's adorable!! Don't hold yourself back too much when shopping. I did and now I regret it. Yes we were on a tight budget but it was a once in a life time trip and I wish I would have bought more.

She is beautiful. I laughed when I read your blogs from this past week. I hope Claire continues to sleep as well when you get her home. Enjoy the trip and say hi to Carmen.

Each day I get up, and the first thing I do, is check what you might have posted in your blog. You definitely will have to come over and show her to me. I want to meet Miss Claire, personnally. What a doll. Have fun, the long wait is over, enjoy!!!!!
