Jadeyn's Journey

Last Day in Nanchang & First Day in Guangzhou

Yesterday after breakfast we went to pickup Jadeyn’s (and the other children’s) passport and went back to the hotel to pack and prepare for our flight to Guangzhou. The flight was about 1 hour & 10 minutes. Jadeyn did terrific! She sat still the entire flight, played and looked at magazines and was perfectly content. They served us a meal of spicy shrimp & vegetables with rice and Jadeyn couldn’t get enough of it. She is such a great eater and we have now found out that she really likes spicy foods.

We are now in Guangzhou at the famous “White Swan” hotel. This is where most families stay when they come here to adopt. We met up with the other two Great Wall families in our group (They were previously in a different province receiving their children.) We started our day by taking the children to the Health Care Facility for them to receive their medical exam. They said Jadeyn looked like a very healthy little girl. After the exam we walked around Shamian Island and looked in many of the shops. Later after nap we took Jadeyn to the “Swan Room” which is a large playroom for the kids. We stayed about 1 ½ hours. Jadeyn had a great time playing with all the toys and other children there. Later we ordered a pizza from Danny’s Bagel, it was really good! We joined our friends in their large suite for dinner and after we were finished eating we just relaxed and enjoyed each others company as the girls (Jadeyn & Maddie) played.

We only have four more days to go! We are so ready to get home! Todays Pictures are in the Photo Bucket under Jadeyn Pics and China Pics - Nanchang 2006 &Guangzhou 2006.

A Father to the fatherless, a Defender of widows, is God in His holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families… Psalm 68:5-6a
