Photo, Photos and More Photos

We're getting ready to go to bed, but thought I'd give a last update for the day.

We took a taxi across town in search of western food and found a TGI Fridays. It was good to have familiar food once again. Even though the whole staff had trouble understanding what we wanted even though we pointed to the menu. We probably had about 4-5 servers trying to take our order...amusing.

After that we walked next door into a 5 star hotel (China's standard, that is) and procurred the assistance of the concierge with getting us a taxi and giving the driver directions to a Starbucks. We went to a central shopping area, of which we're sure to return again, and enjoyed a coffee. Afterwards, we returned to the room in which the kids took baths.

Emily seems to be warming up to the idea of joining a new family. And we discovered her being ticklish around her neck. She and Andrew are behind me snoozing away. We've had to allow Emily to cry a bit in her crib before she realizes nobody is coming to her rescue. She finally resorts to lying down and going to sleep.

Anyway, I wanted to say, that I'm going to start uploading every photo that we've taken to Flickr. But I'll probably still put highlight pics in my blog posts. Otherwise, my barrage of text would become boring.

There are hundreds of photos that Anamaria has shot and I hope to load those up in the morning. That means it will be Tuesday night for you all.

I believe you can either click on the title up above or the link below and it will take you there.

It very touching that you are able to go to the spot where she was found. I must admit some concern as to whether or not she would take to you, and I am very happy that she has so well. Many congrats on your success thus far.
