Party Time!

While waiting in Guangzhou, we've had many opportunities to celebrate :). Our tour guides like to party and always want to show us a good time. A few nights ago we went on a dinner cruise on the Pearl River which runs through Guangzhou. It was quite hot and humid (as usual), but the food was tasty and we enjoyed the evening lights and views from the deck above.




Tonight we had our "Goodbye Party" because one of the families will be leaving tomorrow. We had dinner and Karaoke singing. Yes, here's a picture of Mike hamming it up. Kari and I stuck to just eating and drinking :). Since some of the group is leaving tomorrow, we're on our own for the next 4 days. Not sure what we're going to do to. Personally, I wish we could just head home and be with our family, but since we don't have Kari's Visa until Tuesday, I guess that's not an option! We'll try to spend some time with the other 5 families as they'll be hanging around here too. Oh, I had to include this picture of Warren. He's the only little boy adopted on this trip (out of 7 babies). He's a real cutie - a gentle giant at only 10 months old.


Micaiah and Mimi, we took this picture for you. It was in the elevator. Do you notice anything different about it?

Kris,
I was just thinking about you and your family today!! How crazy is that and then you e-mail. I am so happy to hear about your latest addition. Karis does seem like a true Joy! It also looks like you are having a great time in China. Just heard about the milk scare going on there! Kinda weird, but can happen anywhere.
